Love the re-name! Absolutely captures the essence of the concept. The big eye-opening thing that attracted me to this app was the fact that it aggressively encourages a blank-slate look at your horizon towards your goals 'every day,' and isn't about letting actions pile up in a hopper somewhere behind you. (That exercise alone strengthens the muscle that I needed to get stronk! Worth the price of admission alone.)

And even 'what do you intend on doing today' addresses the very real 'I have a list of 10 chores to do and then get a flat tire on the way to the first chore' aspect of life - emphasis on 'intending' makes it really easy to have compassion for yourself should you not check every box off every day.

Haha yeah exactly. The list is, in principle, entirely doable (unlike giant backlogs) but pretty spacious when contingencies arise. And I'm intending to add more features to guide people through reorienting midday when the day isn't going according to plan.

Congrats! I dig the new name. Speaking of unintended pronunciations, my brain stubbornly processes "intend.do" as rhyming with "Nintendo." (Maybe that will subconsciously make it feel more fun?)
