Keeping track of and prioritizing the things you need to do is a very different challenge from motivating yourself to actually get off your ass and do them.

Ain't that the truth! I've got an easy list of all the projects and stuff I want/need to do, and can easily prioritize and reprioritize that (and often procrastinate by doing just that). But when it comes to actually sitting down and doing it...well, that's where I struggle.

Personally I think Redmine is a bit too much for managing personal life. For capturing and managing tasks I use OmniFocus. But I think the problem is not the capturing but the doing. With BaaS a real person helps you to achieve your tasks.

I mean just from a standpoint of free will and society, not so much from technological: seriously, this is the opposite of what a person should want. When you look at the historical development people got increasingly self-determined over the centuries. This completely makes no sense at all, this is reverse and you even pay for this.

I mean this BaaS probably "manages" 100s of people and is doing nothing else than clicking through a similar software for you.

We send ourselves an email with a todo list, when an action is added, it's "reply all" and add it to the bottom. When one is done it's removed.
