There's a lot of to-do list apps, reminders, calendars etc out there advertised towards us to help us do things like break down large tasks into meaningful chunks and focus on what we need to do each day, but I want to hear from the community what do you guys think is the best so let's start a thread

I use the Microsoft 'To Do' app.

On your phone, set it as a widget and put it on your home screen so it's the first thing you see when you unlock your phone.

On your computer, set your browsers homepage as your To Do task list, so it's the first thing you see when you open your browser.

Whenever you think of anything you need to do, just write it in, you'll be reminded of it constantly. Any appointments won't be forgotten, and you can set due dates for any task.
