(I couldn't think of a good image, so I figured a crushed soda can would suffice.)
I hate to-do lists. A lot. Especially when I start making one in a certain form-like say on my phone-and then I'll be at work and I'll start writing one out in another form, like sticky notes. Then I get home and I start writing out a new one since I forgot the one at work. Then I will lose some of them and before you know it there will be 30 to-do lists scattered throughout my life with nothing checked off.
I finally figured out a solution: email. As I said before, I'm in Gmail all the time. When I'm going about my day and I think of something I need to do, I'll send myself a quick email from my phone (I have myself in my phone as 'me'; pretty clever, I know.) and when I get to a computer and log in to Gmail, I will naturally have a list of stuff to do.
Update: You may say, "Geoff, you are a genius! Thank you so much for giving this advice away for free. However, I don't have a phone with email on it." I would respond with, "Well thank you for the kind words, I am pretty smart, huh? And to counter your point, you can MMS your email address. Give it a shot and prepared to be wow'd."
I have not found a solution on how to actually get the things done, but at least it is all in one place now.
