Abstract
Achieving long-term goals has a large impact on one’s life. However, this success requires focused, consistent work even when the achievement is not imminent. Presently, we turn to calendars and task management applications for help. But, these tools quickly become cluttered making it difficult to visualize progress. I created an iPhone application which emphasizes long-term thinking. First-time users must provide three long-term goals with deadlines. Then, they have the opportunity to add smaller, to-do items to their week. For each item, the user must specify a long-term goal to which it is associated. The long-term association ensures users stay focused.
