I applaud your general approach on investments, since I find assessment of firms and attempts to time sales ever so dull. I empathize with loss of track for just the same reason.
People use lists in different ways! My mother used them as some sort of self-soother, though she didn't think of them that way. She tried to train me always to begin with a list, the more detailed the better. For several decades I never, or very very seldom, used a list, but eventually I was juggling enough that I began to use lists when I needed (or thought I might need) an aide-memoire.
My mother's purse was stuffed with years of lists, lists of groceries or tasks or whatnot. I think they helped her to feel like a grown-up and as if she were in control.
