Organising your 'watching' list

Everyone talks about how disciplined and emotionless you need to be while trading, but no one seems to mention how organised you need to be!

Thankfully, I'm a very organised person, but I'm struggling to find a system to hold my 'watching' list that makes sense. It may be because I'm new to this, but I seem to have a lot, some could be ready to buy today, others next week, but that can obviously change any time. I tried separating them by industry or reasons why it may be a good trade, but nothing's really working.

When your screener gives you half a dozen possible trades, and you already have a bunch waiting, how do you organise them?
