Have you tried the kanban plugin?
I confess to being something of a kanban nerd, and keep three boards in Obsidian:
1: Current work and backlog with Backlog, Selected, In Progress, and Done columns
2: Medium Term - columns for my goals/plans over the next three months
3: Long Term - columns by quarter for the next 12-18 months and one titled “Sometime”
The neat thing is you can define your own columns and have the same goal on multiple kanban boards.
Hope this helps.
