Labeled folders and color codes for putting things away, be it digital or physical. :)

One method I use is to get a spiral notebook and mark out 30 minute increments throughout the work day. I make sure to keep track roughly what I do in each 30 min. I also write down all my meeting times on it at the beginning of the day. This helps keep time organized. Second, I block out time for specific tasks on calendar. This may be do work on JIRA or OneDrive forms/spreadsheets or other. For critical items, I may have an alarm or calendar alert to remind me that it needs to be done. Hope this helps.

I used a hard-copy planner (carry w/me & take home) and a large desk calendar that sat on my desk.
