Coming Soon: The Pocket Mensch App

August 4, 2013 By Greg Marcus 3 Comments

 

 

Over the last year, Dr. Greg and one of his students developed the concept for the Pocket Mensch App, and created wireframes, which are images that allow rapid feedback on a concept and functionality. american mussar app

The Pocket Mensch App is designed to support your Mussar practice. For example, many people struggle to maintain a nightly journal. The App has a feature called “Snap Journaling,” which is shown in the picture to the right. When something happens relevant to the soul trait you are focusing on, you can instantly pull out the app and make a text, audio, or video journal entry. In addition, you and pick where you are along the balance spectrum for the soul trait.

Turning a concept with pictures into an intuitive and robust App is not cheap.

We have an estimate from a great Israeli app development company. We’ll have more to announce soon.

In order to raise the money for development, we will be launching a crowdfunding campaign on Jewcer in the first week of March 2016.

Want to help? Sign up for our email list and we’ll keep you up to date as we craft the campaign.

GM Soul Trait Profile Sept 29 2015Mussar teaches that we all have the same Soul Traits, but different amounts of each. This means that the most arrogant person you’ve ever met still has Humility, or the least organized person you know has the Soul Trait of Order. It just means that they are out of balance.

Soul Traits out of balance cause us to get into the same situation over and over again. Do you leave a job because you are exhausted from too much work, only to find yourself similarly exhausted in a new job 18 months later? Do you keep dating the same type of person? We all have our issues, and the only way to really move forward in this world is to deal with them.

So what makes you tick? Take the Soul Trait Profile Quiz to catch a snapshot of your Soul Trait Profile.
