The Upward Spiral | Habit Tracker

Hi Product Hunt! I created The Upward Spiral template as a reminder that the progress from completing your habits isn't linear, it compounds. If you get 1% fitter each week, by the end of the year you'll be 68% (not 52%) more fit. I wanted a tool that both let me visualise that compounding and the integrated chart (made with Rows), does that beautifully. I also wanted a tracker which reflected the reality that if you stop making progress, you're not just standing still but in fact, each day you're taking a step backwards. Seeing that happening is an extra reminder to not let your progress slip away. I find these two concepts incredibly motivational and I hope you will too! Of course, opening Notion several times a day to record a progress score would be a little bit clunky so I also made an Apple Shortcut that lets you record completed habits from your lockscreen or homescreen as well :) I hope this helps make you more motivated than ever to complete your habits in 2023!

"... if you stop making progress, you're not just standing still but in fact, each day you're taking a step backwards..." This is a very important sentence. Congratulations on your idea @aplssf

Great work, I love how you used Apple shortcuts for it!

This rocks, @aplssf. Being able to visualize your progress is key to keep on going, at least for me. Can't wait to try it out!

What a novel approach on the Notion templates front, unique and impressive combo! ✨ Good work Alex!

Looks super cool! What tools are you using for the charts?

Congratulations on the launch Alex!
