👋😁 Hey Product Hunt,
💬 The story of Moniesto
Since I listened to “Farol da Barra”, a song from my favorite band, Novos Baianos, that talks about the Lighthouse of Praia da Barra, I promised myself that I was going to visit it in 2018.
However, I needed 💰 $300 to do it. So I challenged myself to ship 3 Products in 3 Months to get the money to travel to Salvador (a brazilian city) and meet the lighthouse. This is my #2 launch!
I realized that 🕐 time is the most important thing in our lives. It has such a value for me, that my New Tab on Chrome was a countdown for my death (approximately, shoutouts to @connorvo).
It worked great. I understood that time was running out but I still needed to go some steps ↗️ further. Something I could use to set all the goals that were truly important for me and don’t forget about them.
Then one day I had the idea of putting my main goals on my New Tab, so I could get motivated every time I woke up and opened a new tab. This was a meaningful way to see my 📈 progress and the ⏳ countdown, so I’d never forgotten I need to fight and 🏃 run for them.
This was the moment I decided to create Moniesto. A tool to remember and motivate people for seeking their 🎯 goals in life.
I started using Moniesto for myself with the trip to Salvador goal and added and subtracted money each day as they were passing by. And it worked beautifully! 🤑
Before I reached 3 months, after my first launch (“mprove”, I made $80 with it), I also took care of a cat for a month and this gave me more $80. With this money, I finally bought the flight to Salvador. I’m paying the Airbnb in 3 monthly installments (here in Brazil we have this). At the moment, I could only pay 1 of them, so I hope I can get enough money to pay for the other ones haha. 💩
So I finally reached the goal traveling to Salvador on June 15th and… we did it! 🎉
Me and Moniesto with the Salvador goal accomplished!! 😄
✨ I built Moniesto for those who want to accomplish something they always wanted in their lives. I built Moniesto so that nobody ever forgets to run for their dreams.

Moniesto has been very helpful to me. I'm not the most disciplined person when it comes to saving money, but having my financial goals attached to a title and a image (and a deadline, of course) of what I want to achieve changes everything. Great product!
Pros:
Financial goals always a click away + actionable info on how I'm doing to get there
