I really wish I had the full version of FM that would allow me to turn databases into standalone apps, but right now, I've only for the standard version.

My experience with To-Do lists has been that I keep them for a short while and then they become overwhelming - do fifteen impossible things before breakfast! and so I go into meltdown/avoidance mode. (I am, alas, good at avoidance.)

I found a list of 'things to tackle next' (including, if possible, things I can do when I can't brain and things I can do when I need to feel productive/feel all fired up and want to dig my teeth into something) helps. If I demand too much of myself, I get nothing done at all, which is Not Helpful.
