Awakening Note

Temptation bundling: pair the should with the want

Temptation bundling is linking a task you should do with something you enjoy, so the enjoyable part pulls you through the necessary part — like only watching a show while doing chores.

Gamification is a form of this: bundling the "want" of a game-like reward with the "should" of finishing tasks.

Awakening Note bundles the satisfaction of leveling up with the necessary work, so finishing tasks carries its own pull.
