When I start a new project I create a new Trello board with an Inbox list where I create cards for all the to-dos I can think of.
I usually add a few more lists: Next, In Progress and Done so I can move cards from one to the other as I work until all the important bits are done.
I add coloured labels to my cards. The labels depend on the project but there's usually 'priority:top', 'priority:medium' and 'priority:low' with appropriate colours (I use red/yellow/blue).
When a task needs to be split into smaller tasks, I'll create a checklist in the card if it's simple or just create new cards for subtasks.
When the task needs some research or reflexion, I switch to Evernote to write down a description of the problem and the various directions I can explore. Then I research and write down what I learned. It helps me decide how to solve the problem and it documents why I chose that solution (useful when you come back to it six months later).
If I am stuck I find that writing down the questions I have helps me get unstuck.
