Bagradain Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Saturday, November 4. I haven't played games for 5 days and 23 minutes. Yes, I love games, graphics, beautiful game objects and creatures, interesting plot twists, but I want it to be my hobby, not a way to escape from stress. Now I'm learning a lot to create my YouTube channel dedicated to RPGs. While I still can't find a steady job, I'll at least give it a try, I don't have any other options at the moment anyway. As soon as I started thinking about games as a way to make money, the temptation to play just disappeared and has not returned. I also want to share with you a way to spend more time in real life and at the same time replace the games with something. One day I unexpectedly found the Level Up Life app. (This is not an advertisement, I'm just sharing my own experience). This is not a game, as it may seem at first, but a gamified task scheduler. You have a Level and several Characteristics (eg Intelligence, Strength, Charisma, etc.). There is also a ready-made list of tasks that you can use, and each has its own Category (for example, Sports, Reading, Learning, Socialization, etc.) The sections Reading (there is even a ready-made list of books there!), Mental, Socialization, Education and Sports were especially valuable for me. In games, I've always liked to Level up my character, so I immediately started doing Tasks, earning XP, and Leveling up. With each new Level new Tasks appeared. After completing each task, except for Experience, I increased the Characteristic Points associated with that task, so I could see my strong and weak sides. So, before Level Up Life, I hated reading books and learning. Now I learn new things everyday. I became braver to try different hobbies, after all, I would never have gotten interested in programming, which I enjoy now, if it weren't for In-app Tasks. Some things have become my habits and I already do them automatically. Now I use Level Up Life only in emergency cases, when I completely lose the motivation to do something. This app has impacted my life in many ways and I am even now researching gamification as a tool to improve human productivity. Maybe Level Up Life will help you, like it helped me. Feel free to leave a comment if you tried it, I'll be more than happy to know if this app is actually helped someone. Don't lose hope. Have a nice day everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagradain Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 Good evening. In my opinion, gamification can help us live more productive and happy lifes. I used LUL only as an example, because it was an important experience in my life, and I wanted to share it with others. You can use whatever you like, or what feels better for you. The most important thing is stay on the road and live a happy life. ~Bagradain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
