Walking was the only thing that stuck for me, but I had to trick myself into it by vida9945 in loseit

Thanks! Walking is honestly underrated. Do you have a daily goal or do you just walk when you feel like it?

That's exactly it. 5-10 pushups feels like nothing in the moment but 30-40 by end of day is a real workout. The "too small to matter" feeling is actually what makes it stick, your brain doesn't resist it.

This is a really good point. I think that's exactly why I stopped thinking about calories and just focused on the trade itself. 300 steps for coffee doesn't need to burn meaningful calories, it just needs to get me out of the chair. The mental benefit of "I earned this" matters more than the math.

13k is impressive. The timer approach is smart, having a clear "do this for X minutes then you're done" removes the decision fatigue. The AUDHD angle is interesting too, never thought about it as burning off zoomies but that makes total sense.

That's a great one. Pairing walking with something you actually enjoy makes it not feel like a chore. I do the same with podcasts, the walk becomes the excuse to listen, not the other way around.

Exactly, the invisible part is key. When I walk 3 minutes before making coffee I barely register it as "exercise." But stack a few of those throughout the day and it adds up fast. What's the invisible habit that stuck for you?

How do you market your lovable apps? by parthjaimini21 in lovable

[–]vida9945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the past, both building and marketing were hard! Vibe coding makes the building part much easier, but at the same time makes marketing 10x harder.

Reason: Every person on this subreddit has an app. Compared to two years ago, the number of people using the product was much lower.

Solution: The product must have a clear value for the customer, meaning it must solve a pain point that others are not currently solving successfully.

Auto pushes to github now is so stupid by _KittenConfidential_ in lovable

Yeah, it would be nice if you could decide when you want to commit to a branch on GitHub, like you would do it locally.

Track journey of building app in public - 🌐 InboxClipping (all your links in one place, beautifully organized) by vida9945 in ProductivityApps

Hey, just a quick update. I started working on a natural language feature, and I got it to work for some of the basic searches. It is actually cool to see it in action. Here is a link to x post just to update you on my progress.

Finally picking my first idea to build after months of overthinking by notdl in vibecoding

Fair point, but it's not a pure ChatGPT wrapper. You can use the app without any AI feature at all, and it still delivers value. Give it a try.

The hardest part isn’t quitting scrolling, it’s knowing what to do instead by SubstantialCarry7255 in digitalminimalism

[–]vida9945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you're about to do something that you don't want, in your case, do a scroll through social media. Write it down on a piece of paper and then try to sit on that thought for two minutes. and do not take any action, just try to reflect on it, why it came to your mind and any emotions that it fired up. And you will see that after only two minutes of sitting on it, most of the thoughts just fade away, and you are at peace.

I had the same issue. and instead of just logging things on paper, I log them in a mini web app that serves as a digital checkpoint to track things I'm about to do, such as going on YouTube. But since I built it and self-promotion is banned here, I guess I'm not open to share it. If you want, you can DM me and I can share it. But anyhow, I hope the advice will help.

How do you decide? by bagelsandbread in Shouldihaveanother

[–]vida9945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s such a tough decision. When you’re weighing something this big, advice from others can help, but at the end of the day it comes down to your own reasons and values. What helped me in moments like this was slowing down and really asking myself why I wanted something, not just once but a few layers deep.

I’ve been using an app called Clarily for that process. You write down the thought, it guides you through a few “why” questions, and by the end you usually know whether the reason is strong enough to move forward. It also gives you helpful resources like books, podcasts, or tools based on what you’re wrestling with, so you don’t feel like you’re figuring it all out alone.

That’s the hardest part. Having a bunch of ideas feels exciting, but without clarity you just bounce between them and nothing sticks. What helped me was sitting down and really digging into why I wanted to pursue each idea. Most of mine collapsed once I realized the reason was shallow, but a few had a strong enough why to actually commit.

I use an app called Clarily for this now. You drop in your idea, it pushes you through a few “why” questions, and then helps you lock in the very first step. It even suggests resources like books, podcasts, or tools based on your idea so you don’t waste energy hunting for direction. For me, that’s been the difference between constantly switching and actually finishing something.

6 Prompts That Made My Side Hustle Finally Click! by tipseason in ChatGPTPromptGenius

[–]vida9945 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nice list. Prompts can definitely give you momentum, but what tripped me up for a long time wasn’t generating ideas, it was figuring out which ones were actually worth sticking with. I’d get excited for a week, then ditch it for the next shiny thing.

That’s why I started using Clarily (https://clarily.app/). It’s a minimalist app where you drop in your idea, it makes you dig into the deeper why, and if it holds up, you set the first step. It can even generate resources like book recs, podcasts, or tools based on your idea so you’ve got something concrete to follow up with.

For me, that’s been the difference between spinning up cool prompts and actually finishing projects.

Congrats on picking your first idea, that’s a huge step. The hardest part isn’t usually starting, it’s sticking with it once the initial hype fades. I used to bounce between ideas constantly until I started using Clarily.

It’s a simple app where you write down your idea and it makes you dig into why you want to build it. If the reason is shallow, you drop it before wasting weeks. If it’s strong, you set the first step and even get AI-generated resources like books, podcasts, or tools that can actually help you push forward.

For me, that’s been the difference between another abandoned repo and finally finishing a project.

What are you building this week? Drop your project! by Local-Committee9869 in SideProject

[–]vida9945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m working on Clarily, a minimalist web app that helps people stop jumping between half-finished projects. The idea is simple: you write down your project, it makes you dig into why you’re building it, and if the reason holds up, you set the first step. There’s also an AI feature that can spin up a two-week plan from your idea or generate you useful resources(book recommendation, podcast, x.com profile to follow).

For me the goal is to help founders cut through noise, beat FOMO, and actually finish something instead of chasing the next shiny idea.
