How do you manage your To-dos?

Hello everyone! I have been bit by the productivity bug, after being charmed by the plethora of productivity Youtubers (Matt D'Avella, Ali Abdaal, Tiago Forte, etc). Especially learning about new ways to manage and keep track of your day-to-day activities. I find myself reading up, extensively, about systems and tools that might help you to be more productive. However, recently I've caught myself regressing to a simple pen/paper approach, or using google sheets (the digital pen paper). I was briefly using Trello to manage my workflow by creating Kanban boards. That worked for a while but then my pen & paper To-do started having 'Update Trello' as a perpetual line item that would seldom be ticked off. Then I tried using David Allen's GTD method to create a GTD to-do on Notion. And that worked wonderfully for a while but then the same story followed. I genuinely believe there is more value to be derived from these systems and tools in keeping track of your day-to-day activities and I am curious to know if this was a 'me' problem or if you have faced similar issues as well. PS - Any tips, tools, or systems that you might believe will help me out of this mental block would be really appreciated!
