I'm a developer working by myself. I'm looking for a computerized tool to manage my goals and activities.

I own it Microsoft Project, but I don't like it. I've started many "projects" but could never keep on using it. Too complex and heavyweight for me.

I use MS-Outlook tasks. They are not what I need. No planning capability. Tracking is not nice.

I'm using the Pomodoro technique and I like it, but I'm looking for something more comprehensive and with better computerized support. Something that would allow me to define goals with dependencies and time estimation, keep daily prioritized lists etc.

So, I'm looking for a solution. One I've found is GoalPro, but I uneasy because I could not find a cross-product "top ten" like review.

Are you using any goal setting package such as GoalPro? Which? Does it help? Pros and Cons?
