2, Step 3... or Task 1, Task 2, Task 3....
I vote for Step, etc. on purely psychological grounds. "Task" gives me the
feeling that this is WORK that I MUST do. "Step," on the other hand, gives me
the feeling that the "steps" are guiding me through the process. I like
guidance. I don't like work. FWIW
