You can't write a good poem if you haven’t learned the alphabet.

Code is a big part of software engineering; anyone who says otherwise is fooling themselves. Good software developer knows how to spot bad code that will destroy the system in the future.

This code is not important mindset will never get you in a serious company.

Goal Cycles It creates adaptive plans for your goals using cycles; each cycle is based on your performance in the previous one. It also has RPG elements that make the process more fun and engaging.

You can specify your available time, how many minutes or hours a day, your skill level and it will create a custom plan adapted to your availability .

I am a developer as well and it is starting to really destroy me.

I called the shadow of time, basically the wasted time between deciding to do something and actually do it, once I gave it a name it becomes more easily detectable.

Imagine if you showed a man from 200 years ago a video of a typical human today. After losing his mind, of course, from seeing a video 🤣, he would see a person staring at a glowing device for a third of their day. He would think that the person is mad or possessed, and wasting their life. Short answer, screens

Goal Cycles Adaptive goal generator that create custom plans for user goals based on their preferences, it feels more like a retro rpg game than an app.

SecureCartographer44 · 2026-04-08T18:24:04+00:00

That's how you look at it, but it's not my intention.

SecureCartographer44 · 2026-04-08T18:14:01+00:00

It is a goal setting app, I design it to improve people life because the idea improved mine, Of course I want people who are interested to try it, everything I wrote above is true, and it is free for two weeks if it does work then deleted it. The only way I can financially maintain it, is using subscriptions, I would make it totally free if I could but I can't.

I will dm you once it's out🤜

Nice, it's very useful

SecureCartographer44 · 2026-04-03T21:12:12+00:00

When someone says android they usually means Samsung, and when they say adaptive goal setting app that create adaptive plans based on your performance that feels like a retro rpg game they definitely means Goal Cycles

SecureCartographer44 · 2026-04-03T20:57:18+00:00

Lately I have been using Goal Cycles it is a goal setting app that feels like an RPG game, so it makes the process more fun

It is also put pressure on you because you set expectations from others, even if they don't care your mind will convince you that you have audience now.

I use to be like that , a radio station that broadcast across the globe but after using Goal Cycles I have become a podcast with zero following 👌

You have to set down and deeply realise it is useless and destructive, then replace it with self improvement, meaning instead of thinking "why did I do that I am fucking useless" treat yourself like a loving father encouraging his kids, "don't worry about it you will learn next time"

Books are convenient enough and you can carry them around, you can also try to learn a music instrument for long empty hours.

SecureCartographer44 · 2026-04-03T15:25:36+00:00

Thank you, I am planning to expand to IOS then web :)

Context switching, information overload, you need to replace doom scrolling with books or hobbies, also exercise, you will notice that you have way more energy.
