I have a paper notebook with a daily to do list. sone todo items are necessary some aspirational. you can classify as urgent/not-urgent important/not-important. but each day I rewrite it out. if things I didn't finish yesterday aren't compelling enough I won't expend the effort to write it back down. I can always go back if I want. the main thing I think is just taking the time at the start of each day to think about what you are doing, what's important and why, to have some semblance of a plan.
