Productivity tools is one of my MOST FAVORITE TOPICS! In addition to being Head of Eng at Forem, I've got two kids... 7 and 4, and am involved as a board member for a few nonprofits, so finding time to fit in everything and also make sure that nothing is falling through the cracks is incredibly important. I wrote this post a few years ago and much of it still rings true, with a few added tools. I use my calendar (and calendly) pretty aggressively to block time and make sure every thing I have to attend is on there. I use OneNote to keep track of my to do list (which is organized by day of the week, weekend, future so that I can look at my schedule and filter in to-dos for each day based on what i'll have time to complete). I also do a few things "by hand". For example, we have a paper next to our front door with everything our kids need to get out of the house and we meal plan with good old-fashioned cookbooks and a piece of paper stuck to the fridge.
I'm not sure if there's anything lacking in this space. It feels like there's still some work to be done on having someone see multiple calendars (I have 4 calendars that feed into one calendar view, but if my partner is trying to book something for us, he can only see via my calendly what's busy or free vs. looking at my calendar to know what also may be moveable).
