Management tools

Hi,

I was wondering if anybody knows any good tools for making a website scope or managing the tasks that come with website development.
I work alone but not very orderly, I sometimes make websites but never finish them
I'm still a student but I'm trying to build some references to get some real jobs eventually

I need some advice on making a project scope, what points to look out,how to shedule my tasks efficiently and have an overview
Any advice, methods or tips are very welcome, especially from real live situations

I'm thinking of making a little vb program to answer all the necessary project scope questions and store or print it out.
How are you keeping track of your projects?
