I use dynalist.io (similar to Workflowy but more actively being developed) - I've found that the lists-within-lists patterns maps well to the way I think - if there's more than one layer of subtasks, Trello tends to not map well. I usually keep a 'Today' list that I fill every morning and work through. I'm planning to try out notion.so though - I have a feeling it might help with the friction that I currently feel when duplicating items from my long term 'how should the product work' structure and the 'currently working on' structure. My most important insight as a solo dev is that you need to manage your own motivation, and that what is required to do so varies. I've found that I easily procrastinate in the beginning of a new project, when nothing is defined yet and it's mostly research, trying to figure out what is even possible and what is desirable. In later stages it's easy to motivate myself, since I get that dopamine kick every time I tick something off from the todo-list. But in the beginning, there are no small, well-defined tasks, just research and analysis - to my brain, that feels like wandering the desert with no end in sight. So I motivate myself by doing pomodoro technique instead. That way every time I finish a pomodoro (25 mins of focused work). I get that little dopamine kick from that instead. Long story short, it's best to track and reward progress, but when that's hard or impossible to do, track and reward effort instead. I use this app on my computer to keep track, but I'm sure there are other good ones: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/be-focused-pro-focus-timer/id953426154 https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/be-focused-pro-focus-timer/id9...
