Notes:

Apple Notes - it's on every device I use and online, so it has the lowest friction. I use Apple Notes for grocery lists (using checkboxes), semi-permanent notes, and sometimes as an inbox of things to process later.

Task Management:

Things (https://culturedcode.com) using the basic GTD framework. I add things to the Inbox through the day to get them out of my head. In the morning and when taking a break from work, I process the Inbox into projects/areas as well as defer them (give them a date to start/do them). Every Sunday I do a review/braindump of projects or anything still open.

By the way, you can use this GTD method with any tool. I know people who do it with Apple Reminders.

One extra thing I do at the beginning of each day is pick 3 tasks I absolutely need to do by the end of the day - a successful day is when I do at least those 3. I got this idea from Chris Bailey's book "The Productivity Project".

I don't keep "permanent" notes (book notes, personal wiki, etc.). I've tried before and I never looked at them again nor did they help my memory.
