I recently wrote up my workflow which goes over a combination of tools that I use to keep myself in check. The post has pictures / longer explanations, but in short:
Unread-first function on Gmail + FutureMe + self-emails + Google Calendar for reminders
Actual paper slips that I put under my watch, pocket, etc. for more urgent reminders
Write ideas / musings down in a sketchbook (it’s all white, which I find more liberating).
Google Keep for “everything else that might be mildly interesting”
Workflowy for breaking down large tasks / paper schedule for day-to-day things

Have you ever forgotten that you put the actual paper slip in your pocket for reminders?
It’s not too bad. I check my pockets fairly regularly (I also keep my pen in there). Otherwise, I’ll just do the paper-under-watch thing.
