Ultra

Time your talents and keep up a semi-daily streak to earn ultra: a mark of mastery that shows one step of significant improvement in an activity, and to motivate yourself every day with healthy habits.

Total Project Development Time

49.28 tracked hours + 6.5 untracked hours = 55.78 = 56.0 hours (rnd. 2sf)

How does Ultra work?

Ultra times how long you practice a talent, allowing you to earn ultra. 1 ultra is the equivalent of 7 consecutive days of 30 minutes practice, or 40 hours of total consistent progress.

Both will progress towards an ultra, so you can put in as much effort as you want and be rewarded for it. 1 ultra represents 1 step of major improvement in a talent. If you don't keep up at minimum 30 minutes of practice, every other day for a talent, you'll lose 1 ultra.

This model of talent incentivizes consistent and meaningful practice, as well as allowing you to reflect on how far you've came and see how practicing and actually following habits benefits your life.

Why are you making Ultra?

The Primary Objective

Neuroplasticity and habits are at the heart of people today. Never before has it been more important to develop talents, and frankly, never before have we been more concerned with the process of self-improvement. One could argue that society's push for it is unhealthy.

Either way, people are happy when they recognise they're good at something. The problem is that it takes a while before someone does become good at something. Even worse - becoming good at something is dependent on motivation, consistency, and quality of practice.

Neuroplasticity shows how much potential we have. We can become anything. Habits show the pathway. Ultra aims to combine both into a focus for every day - every ultra earned is a mark of habit and neuroplastic growth. Ultra is a tool that will help you realize your true potential.

The Secondary Objective

To learn and execute the full MERN stack on a cool project idea that I think will enrich my life! It also acts as a proper mark of a PWA developer by accomplishing such a project.
