Hey Product Hunt Community👋 After over a year of testing and iterations, Journey (beta) is finally ready for its first ever launch on Product Hunt. Journey helps you focus on what matters in your life and achieve your personal goals. We applied behavioural science and coaching methods to create a product at the intersection between mindfulness and productivity. Journey will teach you a simple, 3 minute routine that fits into every schedule and makes your life more intentional, productive and fulfilled. Our current beta combines goal setting, habit building & journaling. **How do we do that?** We have combined simple goal setting frameworks with coaching techniques to build a system that drives result in a mindful way. We first help you understand your long-term priorities by giving you a 360 view on your life across different dimensions. Then we help you bite size your vision into actionable milestones and help you align your daily life with your long term goals. We’ve basically built a simple three-minute morning routine that fits into every schedule and will make your days feel more intentional, more productive, more in-control. **Features:** - 🧭  **Holistic life assessment :** Inspiring users through generating a sense of direction for themselves - 🔄  **Habit building**: helps people create routines that stick - 🙏🏽  **Reflection exercises** based on the science of positive psychology & mindfulness - 🧙🏼 **Coaching sessions** from our in-house coach So, if you are into setting personal goals or personal OKRs, Journey is the most lightweight tool you’ll find out there.

@julius_bachmann This is just what I wanted. Cant wail till you have an iOS app as well. Best of luck for the launch.

@julius_bachmann It’d be great if you could post the links to the app? I didn’t see them during the onbording or in this thread

@julius_bachmann This is amazing! A solid morning routine is much needed to kickstart your day. I love how Journey focuses on anchoring long-term goals. This brings clarity to our lives. Kudos to the Journey team!
Julius Bachmann
@alcaan You got it!! We have tried to keep things REALLY simple, yet focused on the big picture rather than encouraging hustle culture.

Looks awesome, congrats on the launch. Love the concept and the idea behind Journey - you definitely have a new user ;-)

@johanna_hourrier 😻 means a lot!

I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with opinionated tools. Yet you say it has a scientific basis. Can you share a bit more here? Happy to give it a try!
Julius Bachmann
@thassilovogt Totally with you on that... SO MANY products out there! We base all our work on peer-reviewed studies and then test it out through our own user research. For a good introduction, check out @nireyal 's book "Indistractable" and Katy Milkman's book "How To Change". It brings together some of the most important concepts with powerful storytelling. Below you can find more of the actual meaty peer-reviewed articles. We have more where that came from but I thought I'd share a primer here =) * Masicampo, E. J., & Baumeister, R. F. (2011, June 20).

@thassilovogt @julius_bachmann Fantastic! Thanks for recommending Indistractable.
Gordi Braun
Congrats on the launch! Will it also help me get rid of distractions that keep me from achieving my goals?
Julius Bachmann
@gordi_braun Totally, Gordi! In anchoring your long-term goals in both more detail and helping you connect emotionally, this will give you so much more clarity about your long-term inspiration / vision as well as the immediate next step. To put it in @nireyal 's words: you'll become INDISTRACTABLE.

@julius_bachmann great to see you scale what you love. Who’s the in-house coach?
Julius Bachmann
@davesuperman We were able to win Michael de la Bedoyere as our in-house coach. Michael has a PhD from Oxford and trained as a coach. He is also the most wonderful human being!! https://www.linkedin.com/in/mich... We have designed the coaching sessions together over the last months and tested it on our team members as well as some early clients!
Philip Petersen
Congrats on the launch! I just got it for iOS and I am curious how it works with coaching? Who is actually the coach?
Julius Bachmann
@philip_petersen2 Our coaching flow has three sessions over the course of three months: 1. In the goal definition session, Michael will help you set really powerful intentions and anchor them on an emotional level. This takes roughly 45 minutes. It's best to have some rough draft of your journey goals already coming in. 2. In the check-in session, you'll touch base on your progress and work on road blockers you might have hit. 3. At the end of your three month journey, Michael will facilitate a reflection session with you. You'll get a chance to review your insights and draft your next three months! We were able to win Michael de la Bedoyere as our in-house coach. Michael has a PhD from Oxford and trained as a coach. He is also the most wonderful human being!!
