I've tried Notion. Google Keep. Hell, even Jira.
I've set 100 goals.
And yet... life often feels like a loop of undone tasks.
Not because I lack plans,
but because I don’t follow through.
I needed something that reminded me, relentlessly.
But not just another notification.
Something that said:
“You said you’d do it. Prove it.”
At the same time, I’ve often struggled with why.
Why keep showing up? Why do anything at all?
Then I found comfort in the myth of Sisyphus
the idea that the act itself is enough.
That pushing the boulder is a form of meaning.
So I’m building Roll
a small, honest app that helps you show up, upload proof, and track your own effort.
- ✅ Set a recurring task or habit
- 📝 Define what "done" means (your own criteria)
- 📸 Upload proof (image, video, or text) to mark it complete
- 🔔 Get reminders to stay on track
- 📈 View your streak, effort history, and proof log
“The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart.”
— Albert Camus
Roll isn't about chasing dopamine or crushing productivity.
It's about showing up - with proof - even when it’s hard.
Even when there’s no end in sight.
Like Sisyphus, but with a camera.
I'm documenting the journey on Twitter/X.
Follow along. Or better - build your own boulder, and push it with me.
