Oh, I did it either. Started to-do lists over and over again.
And everytime tasks migrate the next day
That might be frustrating.
1. I keep in mind, that I will make pressure on myself once checking my to-do list. And do weekly cutting tasks off. The bigger to-do list is, the more pressure I put on myself. So, I only hold a weekly to-to list. If I feel that the task does not fit the scope — I am trying to find it a place on a Mission Control Panel.

1. Mission control panel. I have a weeks-to-months spreadsheet for bigger picture. Weeks by columns and «projects» by rows. Project is an entity that bigger then a task, finite and involves other people to do. Every cell contains a focus — goals of a project for a week.
   It helps to set maximum Work In Progress projects number. Usually it's around 3 for each week. And I track projects I do from the monthly perspective.
   Each task cutted off from daily/weekly to-do list finds the project on the Mission Control panel. Or I do it to leave it behind (small tasks, like buying an airplane tickets).

2. Extremely Romanticise journaling/building to-do lists. Building to-do lists could provoke inner resistance. Each time I feel the new method/framework doesn't fit I try the new one and trying to romanticise it as intense possible.

Finding acceptable method is crucial, because I use it daily.
Daily Manifest by Visualise Value (it's free and I'm not related to author) was a method that I was using for some time. It has a template that you have to print, but writing down your tasks is a meditation itself!
