Productivity Buddy-Procrastination Busting Tool

Example

A user frequently postpones writing reports until the last minute.

Scenario

Productivity Buddy initiates a dialogue to identify why the user delays report writing, such as lack of interest or feeling overwhelmed. It then suggests breaking the task into smaller, manageable segments and allocating specific times for each, transforming an overwhelming task into a series of achievable steps.

Example

A user needs to prepare for an upcoming exam but doesn't know where to start.

Scenario

Productivity Buddy helps the user list all the topics needed for the exam, estimates the time required for each topic, and creates a study schedule that fits the user's daily routine. This approach provides a clear path forward and builds confidence in the user's ability to prepare effectively.

Example

A user has multiple overlapping deadlines and cannot decide which to tackle first.

Scenario

Through discussion, Productivity Buddy assists the user in evaluating the urgency and importance of each task. It then recommends an order for completing them, possibly suggesting to start with tasks that are both urgent and important, to ensure the most critical deadlines are met without sacrificing quality.

Example

A user spends too much time on social media instead of working.

Scenario

Productivity Buddy explores the user's triggers for social media use and suggests practical strategies like using website blockers during work hours, setting specific times for social media breaks, and replacing the habit with a more productive activity when the urge arises.
