My time and task management systems in 2025

As I’ve been writing here regular updates on how I manage my tasks and time, I am now taking stock again of how I currently manage my time and tasks.

Here’s what I am currently using:

• An annual planning, based on priorities and goals, in my bullet journal
• A semester task list, in which I track in various categories what I have on my plate in the coming semester, in my bullet journal
• A semester priorities list, with a limited number of main priorities – I write this in my bullet journal as well as on my office whiteboard
• A monthly task list, in various categories, which I write in my bullet journal and on my whiteboard
• A weekly priorities list, in various categories, which I write in my bullet journal and on my whiteboard
• My Google Calendar, which holds my planning, tasks, and my day-to-day activities
• Todoist for recurring reminders and very short tasks

All in all, I have quite simplified and streamlined my processes. Google Calendar is my main container – if I need to do something and it will take me more than 5 minutes, I am going to put it on there in a little time slot or bunched with, for example, other administrative tasks.

How do you manage your time and tasks? How do you ensure that your time and task management tools are streamlined?
