Track & fix bad habits by building routines that actually work for you. Everyone is different. The routine, habit, or “life hack” that works for someone else might not work for your sleep, energy, focus, screen time, or daily life. Prototype Me helps you figure out what ACTUALLY works for YOU through trial and error. Start by finding the weak areas in your life — things like low energy, poor sleep, eye strain, procrastination, too much phone use, or trouble switching off at night. Then turn those areas into modes, like Winding Down, Focusing During Work, or Better Mornings. Each mode becomes a simple playbook of things to try, keep, change, or remove. Use journaling to rate your days, track what happened, and spot the patterns behind your best and worst days. Over time, your modes get better because they are tested by you, for you. No strict rulebook. No perfection. Just a personal system for improving your life one experiment at a time.
