The Only Mental Wellness App That Tracks Your Progress Over Time
In a recent blog post, we explained how Founders First allows you to make journal entries to better understand your current mindstate. Every few weeks, you fill out a mental wellness questionnaire that determines the areas in which you should focus your wellness routine based on what your mind needs the most right now. These factors appear in the journal you use when you consider your mindstate every day, so that you’re aware of your current mental state and can take the right steps to improve your personal health and wellness.
Not only does the app evaluate your current mindstate, but it also tracks your mental ability over time, referred to as psychological preparedness. This allows you to look back at your own data and see how your mindstate has changed over time. Plus, this tracking feature allows the app to make bespoke recommendations based on your history and habits.
The longer (and more frequently) you make journal entries in the app, the more the app understands what you need. Founders First allows you to look at your recorded mindstate in the form of a line graph over the course of the last week, month, three months, six months, and year. This lookback window allows you to see how your performance has fluctuated over time, and where you are now compared to where you were in the past.
The goal here is to provide you with context as you traverse entrepreneurship’s daily struggles and challenges. It’s also meant to reassure you that there are as many highs as there are lows, and that true “success” is finding consistency and harmony in your mental wellness routine.
It can be difficult for anyone to be completely aware of what they’re feeling at any given time throughout the day. But the hectic nature of running a startup can cause tunnel vision when it comes to taking care of and being aware of ourselves. Many entrepreneurs find it hard to take a step back and understand the emotions that are ruling their actions. By starting or ending your day with a journal entry in the Founders First app, you’re taking a step toward becoming more aware of your mindstate. This awareness just might give you the information you need to make better decisions about your personal health and your business.
For example, let’s say you’re in the midst of a funding round and you’ve started to feel like you’re swimming upstream. You’ve been making your journal entries each day, but you haven’t taken advantage of the recommended tools or actions, and you haven’t taken the time to evaluate your progress over time. In a moment of clarity, you decide to check on your mindstate over the last month and you notice that your calm and identity hours have decreased significantly. With this information, you acknowledge that the stress of the funding round is reducing your psychological capability and you make an effort to improve your mental state by practicing the app’s recommendations and keeping a closer eye on your performance.
The most important asset of your business is you, the founder. Because it’s up to you to make all key business decisions, it’s imperative that you’re feeling and performing your best, mentally and physically. We track business metrics every day, why wouldn’t we do the same by tracking our personal health and wellness as entrepreneurs? Being able to track your progress over time offers a deeper level of insight when evaluating your current mindstate, and helps you determine whether you’re making the right decisions for yourself and your business.
