Using a kanban board to manage my life (lemmy.world)

Has anyone else tried using a kanban board to manage the things they would normally forget to do? Specifically moving physical sticky notes through columns as you start and complete tasks.

I’m a software engineer professionally, and it occurred to me that this organization method is natural to me for work, so maybe it would also work for life tasks.

So far, I’ve gotten like 100x more tasks done than I normally do, but maybe it’s a short term thing. Need more time to tell.

Systems like this work great for me right up until I forget to use them.

Yeah, it's worth a shot. The physical aspect of it should make it stickier, but like everything it might get unused eventually.

I slop coded a todo list with obnoxious alerts at work and was able to track my work for 2 whole weeks before I never used it again.

The other danger is my cats running off with the sticky notes lol. Downside of using sticky notes over software
