I really like using nested bullet lists. When I think of a project idea, I create a new list. Each bullet is a goal of the project, and then I split it into sub goals and problems, and keep notes as I go. One thing that really helped was the soft rule of only allowing leaf nodes to be actual tasks, everything else has to be a problem or goal. If it turns out a leaf node needs to be split up further, I gotta re-formulate it as a goal/problem. Also, I try not to work on anything before I've written it down first. Since I've been doing this, it's easier than ever to come back to a project after not working on it for a while. I've always thought that people write things down to remember them, but for me at least it seems that it helps me forget and free my mind for other things. It's important to me that the software supports infinite bullet nesting. I use Dynalist but there are other good ones out there, I'd love to switch to RemNote actually.
