Ask HN: Tools to achieve your goals?

I am using app called Everest on the iPhone. You can set due date for the goal(dream) and break it down into smaller tasks. Its awesome.

Or did you want something for your phone only ?

Nope, web apps are just as good.

Then i think that any recent issue tracking software can be used for that :). That s what I do already with Jira
