Facing Fear vs LYS

Facing Fear – structure fears clearly, act boldly Facing Fear helps you make inner hurdles tangible — with a clear method of Definition, Prevention, Repair, scenarios, and concrete next steps. This way you make better decisions, reduce rumination, and get into action. Why Facing Fear? - Clarity instead of catastrophizing: organize thoughts, assess risks, and see in black and white what truly matters. - Action instead of procrastination: set concrete steps — with due dates and reminders. - Reflect & learn: compare expectation vs. reality and close topics consciously. How it works - Define: What is it really about? Describe your fear/decision. - Prevent & Repair: What can you do to prevent problems — and what if something does go wrong? - Scenarios: Worst case, most likely course, and best case. - Costs of inaction: What happens if you change nothing (6/12/36 months)? - Next steps: Max. three concrete actions incl. date. - Assessment: Severity, likelihood, controllability — as a risk score (0–100). - Review: Set a review date. - Close out: Reflect at the end (“What actually happened?” and “What will I tell myself next time?”) and archive the entry.

LYS is an all-in-one planner: a calendar and to-dos, the dates you're waiting for, goals, notes, and a journal, together in one private app. Plan your day in the order you'll actually live it, from school drop-off to practice at five. Count down to birthdays and trips, watch your goals add up, and end each night with five questions about your day. Everything you write is end-to-end encrypted, so it stays yours alone. SCHEDULE Your to-dos and your events, together in one day and numbered in the order you'll do them. Drag them where you want them, and tap a number to complete it. Set a reminder on any to-do, and LYS can send you your plan each morning. Make a to-do repeat on the days you choose, and your routine keeps its order from one day to the next. Your events sync automatically with Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, and Outlook. FRIENDS Share your day with your friends and see theirs. Post today as your story from the Friends tab, and tap any row to hide it first. Stories end at midnight and are encrypted end to end, so only your friends can see them. Add friends with an invite link, or show your code to someone beside you. COUNTDOWNS The days you're waiting for, on a timeline from today: a trip, a school play, an anniversary. A date can come back every year. Bring in birthdays from your contacts, see how old everyone is turning, and see each one coming a week ahead. GOALS A goal is a number: dollars saved, books read, a balance paid down. Tell LYS where you are and where you want to get to, add a step each time you move, and watch the bar fill. Quitting something? Count the days without it. If you slip, start over, and write down what will help next time. Write down why you're quitting, so the reason is there when you need it. NOTES Every list and idea in one place, sorted from A to Z, in folders inside folders. Checklists, a grocery list that remembers your usuals, and a search only you can run. Lock the private ones with Face ID. JOURNAL Before you go to bed, record your day by answering five questions. Then rewind to any day to see what was on your mind. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you write is end-to-end encrypted with a key only you hold. Our servers store your words as ciphertext we can't read. If you use LYS without an account, your entries stay on your iPhone or iPad and never reach us. EVERYWHERE YOU ARE iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets that stay up to date, and Siri to add a to-do. Choose from 54 Paper Colors, and the whole app, even the icon, changes to match. YOURS TO KEEP Your planner works without a connection. Once you create an account, it syncs and backs up quietly, and you can export everything as Markdown or PDF anytime. FREE TO USE Plan & share your day for free. Plan your life with LYS+: unlimited goals, countdowns, notes and journal entries.
