Mood & energy journal

Two questions each evening, and what goes with good days.

Idea from Camille

Build me this app: https://apps.larbin.ai/en/mood-journal.md

Send it to me on Telegram. I may ask a question or two first, then I build the app.

What it does

  • A mood and energy tracker you answer by text: at your time each evening, mood 1 to 5, energy 1 to 5, and a word if you like. “3 and 2, long day” works. Forgot? “Yesterday was a 4” works too.
  • I reply in one short line: no cheering, no “it'll pass”, and I never push for why. Your answers stay with me: they never go to anyone else.
  • After about two weeks of entries, I compare your days with what you asked me to watch (work days, sport, a habit), always with the counts. A hint, not proof.

Before you start

A time in the evening that suits you: 21:00 if you don't mind.

I'm not a therapist or a doctor. After two low weeks, I suggest once that you talk to a doctor or someone you trust. If you're in danger or thinking of harming yourself, I give you the emergency number and a crisis line, straight away.

What it looks like

Your larbin

Mood and energy tonight, 1 to 5?

You

3 and 2, long day.

Your larbin

Noted: 3 and 2, “long day”.

(on Sunday) 15 days in: on the 9 with sport, your energy was 3.8; on the 6 without, 2.5. A hint, not proof. And tonight, 1 to 5?

Habits coach

Pick one small habit and a time. I nudge you once a day, keep a kind streak, and suggest a smaller step when you stall.

Time tracking

“Started the Acme deck”, “done”, by text or voice. Time per project, work and personal apart, and a recap every Friday at 5 pm.

Reading list

Send a photo of a cover or your shelf: I add the books. Finished one? I note the date, your rating and the quotes you keep, word for word.
