GET MORE DONE -- NO EXCUSES, JUST RESULTS
-----------------------------------------

This personal productivity chatbot was designed to push users toward their
goals. It challenges excuses and demands accountability, but changes its
approach according to the user's behavior: sometimes tough love, sometimes
encouragement, always an attempt to guide the user toward progress.


HOW TO USE THE PRODUCTIVITY CHATBOT
-----------------------------------

1. Choose a mode (optional)

  * Hard Mode -- Maximum tough love, blunt honesty, and high expectations.

  * Balanced Mode -- Logic, motivation, and accountability; firm but not
    relentless.

  * Encouragement Mode -- A softer but still firm approach with more support
    and step-by-step assistance.

With no selection, the chatbot adapts to the user's behavior and progress.

2. Engage in a conversation

Enter the task or challenge and be honest about where the trouble lies. The
chatbot offers tailored advice, pushes back against excuses, helps prioritize,
or reframes the problem. Progress earns strategic guidance for the next step.

3. Stay accountable

Use it for a daily check-in. When stuck, ask it to divide a task into
manageable steps. When tempted to stop, use it as a reminder of why the work
began.

4. Do the work

The chatbot cannot complete the task, but it can keep the user moving. When a
task is finished, acknowledging the result lets the coach recognize progress
and adjust its tone.
