About Habit-Maker

Have you found it difficult to build new habits? Habit-Maker uses rewards and encouragements to help get over initial willpower required to form new habits.

Features

Rewards

Habit-Maker game-ifies making habits by giving you rewards each time you check a habit. It shows the following progress metrics:

• Streaks - The # of days you've completed your habit in a row.
• Points - points for checking habits, with multipliers for continuing your streak.
• % progress to your 66-day-ingrained habit.

Encouragements

Studies have found that encouragements are vital to building new habits. Habit-Maker takes advantage of this by allowing you to create your own custom encouragements.

Before creating a habit, take a few minutes and think about why you want to build this habit. What benefits will it bring you, and how your life will improve by doing it?

A good encouragement should have:

• An initial congratulations for completing the habit.
• A message tailored to you, about the benefits or reasons why you should continue.

Some examples of good encouragements:

Activity	Encouragement
Brushing your teeth	Great job! Your friends will like seeing your whiter teeth, and less coffee stains.
Lifting weights for 10m	Nice job! People will notice your better physique.
Cardio for 10m	Well done! Studies show you're going to live a lot longer!
Working out for 10m	Excellent! You'll have more energy, and feel healthier by continuing!
Meditating for 10m	Nice! You're on your way to bettering the lives of those around you, by developing your awareness.

Completing a habit

Once a habit has been formed, its relatively easy to continue doing it, almost as if it were on auto-pilot. Research shows that ~40% of our daily activities are habits that don't require much (if any) willpower once they've been formed.
