This works for me, I used to have a file I would create with 'to do', 'doing', and 'done' values on each of the steps. But someone here on HN pointed out that I could use Trello for that which I tried, and it was absolutely the best for this. Make a board,, think of the top few things that have to be done, pick one, move it over to 'doing' it will spawn a few more things, start picking them off one by one. And putting them into the done column.
