Your Cellphone Is Your Lifeline. Use It Like One.

Use Your Phone To Organize, Evaluate, and Problem Solve Your Life in 5 Categories

People who set goals are 42% more likely to achieve them in comparison to those who do not goal set.  Why?  Because writing down your goals helps you clarify what you want to achieve.  Setting goals also makes you accountable… to yourself. 

The 5 Spheres mobile app was created as a modern journaling tool for both adults and children. The app provides users with an effective way to organize, evaluate, and problem solve by setting GOALS in each of their 5 spheres – the Physical, Mental, Financial, Social and Educational Spheres.  Essentially, the mobile app is your personal journal… on your phone! 

My blog, “Kids Should Be Journaling Too”,  shares the many benefits journaling provides for individuals of all ages, but specifically children.  Not only is it a way for them to express their emotions but it allows them to set goals for themselves.  

Today, children are born literally holding a cell phone in one hand and an iPad in another.  Mobile technology is innate for this new generation.  Children can’t imagine a prior world without Google, Kids Messenger, Youtube Kids, Roblox, TikTok, etc. 

Let’s be honest with ourselves, though. As adults we are just as reliable on our phones for nearly everything we do… shopping, working, traveling, socializing, etc, etc, etc. Even when we’re bored, we turn to our phones for entertainment.  

Studies show that extensive cell phone usage by kids is linked to poor communication and writing skills, anxiety, depression, social anxiety, shyness, and so much more. 

If this is the case, and we are so reliable on our phones, then why not use our phones for good.  How often are you using mobile apps that are beneficial for your health? Apps that support you physically and mentally? What about your financial, social, and educational health? Because let’s be honest, spending an hour on Instagram is not improving anyone’s social and educational fitness. 

5 Spheres Mobile App

The 5 Spheres mobile app allows you to set personal goals in all of your 5 spheres.  You are also able to create tasks to meet these goals and set deadlines.  The app sends deadline reminders with the ability to extend the deadline if you need more time to complete the task.

Every week, the mobile app is updated with new resources and articles in each of the 5 spheres. These are provided to assist you in reaching the goals you set. 

The next phase of the app, which will soon be in development, will allow you to see how a challenge in one sphere is impacting one or more of your other spheres.  For example, your physical challenge of chronic fatigue is starting to make you feel mentally worn and socially isolated.  The app will show the challenge in your physically sphere negatively impacting two other spheres, the mental and social. 

As mentioned, the app is available for children ages 12 and up.  As a parent of a 10 year old, I have downloaded the app for my daughter but sit with her to go through any goals she may want to set for herself.  We discuss challenges she may have, which spheres they are affecting, and what tasks she can accomplish to reach her goal of overcoming the challenge.  

The 5 Spheres approach and journaling tool is a more proactive approach to achieving fitness in all spheres of life and is likely to result in a profoundly more successful individual.  

Just like your traditional journal, your “5 spheres” is subjective to your life which means you can review and edit them whenever you like. The more we do so however, the more it becomes a habit to organize and evaluate our life in 5 categories/spheres.

This is your life, your journey, so we hope this roadmap is useful.
