Over lockdown, I struggled to wake up on time and form a routine. I started telling my friend what I was going to do in the morning, and if I didn't send photo proof, I'd have to donate money. This was absolutely bulletproof: I woke up, worked out and meditated before I'd usually be awake, consistently, for the first time ever. I only skipped days due to freak accidents (there was no way I'd stay in bed knowing that I'd lose $20).
I've spent the past year and a half, on/off, building this into a Flutter app. The premise is that you say what you're going to do, the deadline for when you submit the evidence, and how much money you'll lose (70% to charity - GiveDirectly) if you don't submit the evidence. We manually approve the evidence.
Excited to share it with you! Here are some examples of what you can use it for:
1. Waking up on time (eg, a photo of your toothbrush).
2. Working out (eg, a photo inside a gym).
3. Writing (eg, a photo of 3hrs of writing on a time tracker software)
4. Reading (eg, a timelapse of yourself reading for 30 minutes).
5. Meditating (eg, a timelapse of you meditating).
6. Running (eg, a photo of you in your running shoes outside).
7. Finishing an essay on time (eg, a photo of your essay submitted on your student portal).
8. Walking the dog in the morning (eg, a photo of your dog on a park trail).
9. Doing laundry (eg, a photo of your laundry in the washer).
I launched this to the public a couple of weeks ago - would love to hear your thoughts!
