I'm at a job where I found that a daily 'to do' list just doesn't work.  I've got to be able to adapt as needed to put out the current fire.  I've found that a steno pad is the best way to keep track of all my daily notes.  I have it constantly on my desk so that I'm able to jot down anything I need to take care of, whether it be messages, samples, calls, etc.  If I have to go to the Sales Manager's office, I carry it in case they request something.  I'm able to cross things off as they are completed.  I also make use of sticky notes.  I always carry a pad in my sweater pocket, along with a rubber finger and a pen.  

Sounds crazy, but I'm very rarely caught unawares!
