Hey, hope @LightHouse does not mind this.
I found this very similar (or maybe even inspired) by David Allens "Getting Things Done" productivity bible. So maybe someone wants to go deeper into this, might be an interesting read.
When I started implementing GTD/GSD in the first few days I had to figure out what to do afternoon, because I did more than I do in two days in a half day 😀 I guess it is not a bad problem to have 😀
What I love is simplicity. Regarding tools - I still play with different tools a bit. I don't use kanban style tools. I use Calendar, MS To Do and doc or keep for project planning. Would love to switch everything to one place, but Google Tasks just looks too messy for me.
Regarding tools, I try to go as simple as possible and this is why.
1. I try to build my productivity around the system, not the tool. Even the greatest tools can go tits up. There was a story that one of the greatest to do apps Todoist go out of business for some time. Everyone had to migrate. And migrating is like switching houses - the process sucks. If google docs will shut, I will switch to word or whatever.
2. I want to add team members simply, so they don't have to pay or I have to pay additionally.
3. I want to have all three parts - Calendar, To Do list and PM tool as integrated as possible.
