Can not you find the proper willpower in yourself to give yourself an invigorating jog? Do not you find the strength for self-development? Laziness overcame and you can not work?
A man is a strange creature… Sometimes we do not find the strength or time, even for really important things that will bring us direct benefits: if it is business, sports or even relationships with loved ones or close people. If we had not got this stiff feature, we would have achieved much more long ago and would have learned to live as we want. But the reality is that we have to struggle with our lazy nature every day, strengthening ourselves with all sorts of motivational content. In order to fight with the human essence, we have collected the best motivational applications of 2017, with the help of which it will be much more pleasant to work and develop.
Fabulous – Motivate Me!
Fabulous is a personal electronic coach, which activities are aimed at harmonizing your life as a whole. According to the developers, the app’s idea is a holistic approach to human health. You will be offered advice and recommendations on how to improve the quality of sleep, meditate, practice yoga, get enough sleep and think more positively. Thanks to the beautiful interface, the application brings a lot of positive emotions.
The user of the program performs each task for several days, so the habit is automatically formed. For example, it is known that people drink less water a day than is required for the body, so Fabulous is given a task (it is necessary to drink at least 1.5 liters of water every day). The same concerns your sleep (go to bed at 10-11 pm) or planning work (a particular job is done exactly for the set time).
Fabulous is a pocket trainer for every day, for those who want to become stronger, punctual, healthier and cope with the critical weight. All the methods used in the program are pre-tested and scientifically justified, so when you do any tasks, you will get the desired result.

Forest: Stay focused
Forest is an application for those who can not postpone the smartphone and focus on other things. The principle of the application is simple and brilliant at the same time. Every time you need to focus on something, the program will start a timer (from 30 to 120 minutes). During the countdown, Forest “grows the forest”. If the owner of the smartphone exits the application or switches to some other program – the tree dies. Everything is corny and simple, but terribly effective. Even if you are not the owner of a vulnerable soul or a fan of ecology.
The interface is extremely simple: there is a window where a germ appears at the first touch. Above him are motivating slogans like “Enough distraction!” Or “You can do it!” to believe in yourself if the task seems too difficult.
The message of Forest: Stay focused is very clear: motivate gadget maniacs to focus on work, improve performance in their studies, or meet friends without getting distracted by taping updates in the social networks every minute. Cultivate your own will along with the trees in the virtual forest and get rid of dependence forever. This is more difficult than it seems. Worth a try.
Success can be shared with subscribers on Twitter and Facebook and you can track statistics by day.
