I've been meditating pretty much every day for a few months now, and the thing that got me into it was getsomeheadspace.com

I've found it incredibly helpful - having a different guided meditation to do on the train every day makes the London commute, whilst not blissful, certainly better.

I haven't looked into this for a while - but isn't one of the advantages of the Kindle the ecosystme that surrounds it - in the same way that the iPod is not just an mp3 player - i.e. the iTunes ecosystem?

kevTheDev | 17 years ago | on: Ask HN: Goal Setting Software

Just to further clarify what I want, I like to break tasks down so that I'm constantly working on the "Next possible logical step" no matter how small.

Most of the time I just write them in a list in a text editor, but then i get to the point where i need to clear out my scratchpad - thus losing track of my progress.

Obviously seeing my progress in a chart/graph is not necessary to get stuff done but it might help with motivation :)
