While discussing with my co-developer, I understood most of the time we spent on thinking about minor and major decisions. And 25% of our mind seems to be occupied with plenty of issues which are not directly related our current coding, while coding/design.
Few days later, he informed me that he is using Freemind for managing his task, felt that he got relieved somewhat better.
Assuming tool could be a process or software itself.
Do you use any tool? which are not used directly for your coding/design/development/testing, but you use it for all projects. Tool which helps brain to focus/organize. Could be used everyday, possibly for every task.
I am not sure either I put my question clearly, but don't give me build tools, and code generation tools. But suggest tools which help your brain.
