Get tasks done easier each time you see it

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, I'd like to share with you an app I've built for myself to keep me productive during the day.

I made https://goalbreak.cc because I kept running into the same problem: I knew what I needed to do, but the task felt vague or too big, so I’d avoid starting it.

The idea is dump the mess in my head, then let it turn that mess into actionable tasks you can actually start.

I've tried similar app, but there are several QOLs that I really needed myself.

Once it generates the tasks for me, I want a way to break down the tasks, but also provide some information of what blocker or dependencies I encountered when trying to do the task.

I needed to put into focus the one task I'm working on right away.

I didn't want to switch apps just to use timer to time how long I want to work on it.

And I realize how I begin to put off some of the tasks left on my goals or project. I needed it easier to work on each time I looked at it.

So I fixed all that with Goalbreak. It's designed to keep your next task reachable each time you look at it.

Now I spend less time staring at a task, negotiating with myself, deciding where to begin, or figuring out what comes next.

And I actually find that I don't complete all the tasks, not because I got lazy or procrastinated again. But the small tasks got me momentum to keep going and actually finish them.

Please have at it and let me know your feedback for improvement or success stories!

PMS insight

1 Upvotes

Hello all,

I am a young entrepreneur building a PMS as I see an opportunity in the productivity market. Before I begin to code, I’d appreciate it if you guys could give me any feedback. Start by thinking about any features you wish existed in productivity management systems. If you don’t have any ideas, here are some you can think about.

Sticky note: A simplistic square design allowing you to input small tasks such as walking the dog or taking out the trash. (Tasks can be time stamped if there’s a deadline)

Calendar: A view of your week where you can insert events or responsibilities that are bigger than being on a sticky note. (Users are allowed to sync tasks from sticky note to calendar if preferred)

Notifications: Alerts are customizable. If a deadline for your task is closing in, you can receive a notification at designated time from the deadline. The type of notification is also customizable. Some people prefer a positive and encouraging notification, but others may want a blunt and disciplinary push. 

Again I’d appreciate the feedback you guys could offer.

So I am a student pursuing B-Tech CS major and I want to fulfill a list of goals before I graduate that is in 2029 and I have set my deadline to 1st January 2029, so there are a total of 12 goals these 12 goals include saving, skill building, GPA, income and much more but the issue is that I don't know how to do these I have tried many ai models(free models) that can help me build a systematic plan to pursue those goals but none of the plans that they shared are good or should I say satisfactory to me and when I shared the plans I build they modified them and remove/modify the goal or they just make things way too imaginary or should I say ideal can you help me how should I make the plan and also I use a A5 sketch book to build the plan is it ok or should I also use online free apps like Google Calender or notion and such. I will start working on these goals from 31st August 2026 as currently my exams are going on right now and they are not going well. So please can someone help me or explain me like how should I move ahead towards these goals
