bn.com has an online GTD (Getting Things Done) course starting in May? A quick google on GTD might return some helpful tips and software relating to personal organization.

  This doesn't quite answer your question, but I'll just throw this out
  there anyway.
    I use a paper and pencil to do this.

    Every night before I go to bed, I write a list of everything I have to
  do.  Then I prioritize it to decide what I should be doing
  tomorrow.  Generally the list has between 12-20 items on it and each day I
  do anywhere from 1-5 things.

    The list is not strictly work related.  I'll keep mundane things on there
  too like "Go to grocery store / fix door hinge in bedroom / Rake Leaves."

    I believe the act of writing a list of things to do helps solidify what
  you have to do and therefore keeps the focus.  I may be wrong about that,
  but it does seem to help me.
