I have three layers in my life, alongside a document silo.
On the bottom level, I use Trello with my wife. Longer term tasks are stored there, in a modified kanban-style board (multiple backlog queues, in progress, done, canceled). This is visited semi-regularly and updated. Also we plan bigger events like long travels and things involving both of us there.
On the day to day level, I use Pagico. Pagico is a personal "project management" application which can track multiple projects and store data about them. Work life and personal life has different spaces, and I can mix them together in Pagico to handle tasks in both places.
The biggest advantage of Pagico is its "Dashboard" views, which allow me to divide tasks into days and "forecast" my week, and anticipate crunches and deadlines before things become too problematic. Of course Murphy finds a way, but seeing what's coming goes a long way.
On the shortest term (minutes to hours), I use pen and paper. I always have an affinity to writing, so taking notes, writing sub tasks, etc. allows me to work with a lower mental load. This notebooks are scanned and shredded when they are full.
All important documents are stored in Evernote, shared with my wife.
This is the third or fourth iteration of my personal system, last revamped during the pandemic, in 2020. Before that I had a bullet-like journal I started before bullet-journalling craze, and overgrown it.
Please feel free to ask any further questions.
