I actually don't use org mode much though. It's one of the nicer tools I've tried, but I'm just not an organized person.
Pretty much every organizational tool I've ever tried is really good at helping organized individuals become more organized, but do little to help those who are disorganized.
Most organized people sometimes get disorganized. At those times, if you have all your life in a single (or maximum 2) place, getting back to some level of organizedness becomes possible.
I am extremely disorganized too, and I have seen org mode helps me in the getting back business - though you do have to invest seriously in org mode first to be comfortable enough in it. But org has the answer to this too : org-drill.
