We designed the app to feel familiar while allowing you to enhance your life and find what makes you energized.
Download the Good Time Journal app and sign up for an account. Start logging your activities and invite friends to join your journey. Share your progress with each other!
Begin capturing your daily energy and engagement levels, while doing your daily routine. Keep track of how you feel throughout the day, log your energy and engagement scores.
Reflect on your week, what you learned, new things that might have surprised you. Figure out which activities brought you the highest level of energy, enjoyment, and engagement.
Make connections between who you are, what you believe in, and what you do. Articulating your view on work and life will help you create a path to a life that has more meaning and eventually leads to greater satisfaction.
Logging allows you to track your daily activities so you can take note of when you’re engaged, energetic, in flow, or bored throughout the day. The daily and weekly analysis will help you find a path to a more fulfilling life.
The journal gives you a framework for reflection so that you can better tease out what’s working in your life and use that knowledge to shape your future. Using design principles and techniques we help you create a life you love.
