I Launched My Side Project to Help You Achieve New Year’s Resolutions
Today I’m releasing my side project to the world

Today my co-founder and I are excited to announce the launch of our side project Confetti!
Confetti is a simple, colorful habit tracker that tracks your daily/weekly commitments and launches confetti every time you complete a task to celebrate your daily accomplishments.
With new year’s resolutions ripe for concurring, we decided it was a good time to share our creation with anyone looking to better themselves in 2020.
Where it all started
Almost three years ago, I had a realization that would change the way I approached my life.
I was 20 years old and living in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, building an online business. My company was doing great, but I realized that I wasn’t satisfied. I didn’t feel healthy or focused, and I had little structure in my life.
I was doing all the right things to run my business, but my health and improvement were falling to the wayside.
I didn’t feel that my personal goals were advancing at the same rate that my business goals were. I was pushing my personal development to the side instead of keeping it in the forefront.
I decided that just as I have a to-do list for my business, I should have one for my life. Just as I track the progress of my business, I should track the progress of my own development.
“We become what we repeatedly do.”
― Sean Covey
So I made a list of things that I wanted to do each day. At the time, these were the habits I decided on:
- Workout
- Read
- Practice Vietnamese
- Meditate
- Do affirmations
- Learn something new
I grabbed some grid paper from a local shop and wrote the days of the week and the habits I wanted to develop daily.
