Getting Started

1. What is this app for?

A: Growing in virtue and thereby attaining greater fulfillment in life. See the 'Why Pursue Virtue?' page to learn more.

2. How do I use this app to grow in virtue?

A: The app has both educational resources, so that you can learn more about virtue, and resources to help you form that virtue. You can start by looking at the list of virtues in 'Virtues' and learn more. See if any make you think 'Maybe this is a part of my life I can grow more in,' or 'I haven't thought much about this part of my life.' Once you've learned about a virtue, you will see a section about how to develop that virtue on that page, which will lead you to a page for a Plan to develop that virtue. There, you can see the step-by-step process by which we develop virtues. Some are on a clear schedule, like eating; others are more opportunistic and are only used when needed, like diary entries. By following that Plan and using the associated Tracker, the app can help you develop that virtue.

3. What else can the app do?

A: The app also has some resources for those who are looking for more depth to their inquiry about fulfillment in life, or on life's meaning, or other such questions. The 'Philosophy' page delves into those topics, while the 'FAQ' page has a list of frequently asked questions about the app or the virtues. Finally, the Dashboard allows you to view all your active Plans/Trackers and manage how they function, allowing you to configure any reminders, alerts, or other services they offer.

4. Is there a guided plan I can follow?

A: Sure! The remainder of this page will build out a beginner's plan for examining your life, identifying areas where you may want to grow in virtue, and then helping you form those virtues. By the time you've gone through this process once, you should be more comfortable to use this app in whatever way fits your future growth best!
