「お正月に立てた目標、まだ覚えていますか?」 お正月に張り切って今年の目標を立てるも、特に実現に向けて動くこともなく、ひと月も経てば忘れてしまいまた来年に同じようなことを宣言する... 人間というのは忘却する生き物です。あんなに張り切っていたのに、いつの間にか頭からすっぽり抜け落ちて、目標がなんだったのかさえ忘れてしまう。でもそれは、あなたの気合が足りないのではなく、人間の性質なので仕方ないのです。 「忘れてしまうのは、継続して見ていないから」 ずっと見ていないと、人は夢や目標を覚えていられません。受験生が志望校を紙に書いて壁に貼り出すのは、実は理に適ったアプローチなのです。 でも、紙に書き出して貼り出すのは、現実的ではないですよね。人に見られたらちょっと小っ恥ずかしいですし... このアプリは、紙に書いて目につくところに貼り出すように、夢や目標をプッシュ通知として毎日送りつけるアプリです。 毎日届く通知を見れば、いやでも忘れることができなくなります。何回も目標を目にしていると、潜在意識に刷り込まれ目標達成のために動こうという力が働きます。 このアプリの機能は非常にシンプル。 ・登録した目標を、任意の時間にプッシュ通知として送信する。 たったこれだけ!古典的だけど効果的な、習慣化サポートアプリです。 夢、目標、習慣化したいこと、やめたいこと、etc. 紙に書き出すようにアプリに書き出して、毎日届く通知でモチベーションを維持しましょう!

Registering anniversaries will count down to that day each year. The lucky days for each anniversary are also counted down. Lucky days are round numbers automatically calculated from the anniversary. These include: 100th day, 1000th day, etc. (in increments of 100 days) 111th day, 777th day, etc. (with repeating digits) Monthly increments (e.g., X years, X months) The most recent lucky day is also displayed in the countdown, which can be quite fun. You can also view a list of past and future lucky days. Anniversary notifications can be set for the day of the anniversary, the day before, two days before, etc., making it quite useful. *Note: Notifications will not be sent if your iPhone is turned off, so don't rely on it too much! A widget is also included for added convenience! [Add-on features] Ad removal and other features can be purchased. Terms of Use https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
