I've tried to pare down my "system" to the least possible level of complexity.  I use a desk blotter calendar and a running "to do" list in a steno book.  The calendar helps me look ahead, and the list (which contains everything I need to do, even the routine tasks) helps me know when things got done and what's still outstanding.  I've done it this way for a few years now and, although it takes discipline, it doesn't take much time to maintain, and so far, it hasn't let me down.
