goals and calendar ap

how about an ap that you could have on your ipad or other tablet that would allow you to make goals and estimate how much time they will take and have them visualized as globs of material (like slime or putty). Also, each goal could be subdivided into its component tasks which with a change in view you could lump them all together as the grand task or subdivide it into smaller globs.

then you would have a calendar and you could squeeze off a chunks of a goal’s time globule and plop in into your calendar timeline.

That way you could grab off time chunks of each of your goals and responsibilities and put them into your calendar where you would spread them into the appropriate amount of time that you want to schedule. And the goal would have shrunk by the same amount of time.
