Intro — I am a huge fan of journaling ever since I read Tim Ferriss book <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tools-Titans-Billionaires-World-Class-Performers/dp/1328683788/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1510501008&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank">Tools of Titans</a>. There are several types of journaling that lead to different results. There are several articles here on Medium that address journaling as well, for example: <a href="https://medium.com/the-mission/why-keeping-a-daily-journal-could-change-your-life-b9421a69912a" target="_blank">Why Keeping a Daily Journal Could Change Your Life</a>, <a href="https://medium.com/personal-growth/a-new-kind-of-journaling-dd31db5c9ab8" target="_blank">A New Kind of Journaling</a> and others. I am fan of journaling morning after waking up and before going to sleep, just to filter all of my thoughts. The moment I put them on paper they seem more easily controlled. The moment I put them on paper I am able to distance myself from them and keep a clear head. I plan on writing a series of short articles (this one will be a bit longer) in the form of a journal on what am I doing in the hackathon.

Mental health has been a rising issue lately since the pandemic and it caught my attention right away since I was going crazy being stuck in my tiny studio in New York City that has no view. Also, I was consistently looking for ways to help users on Goodnight Journal who expressed depression and anxiety through public journals. Some of the  public journals really got me concerned and think more about features that I can implement to help them feel better. It kind of came naturally that I want to do something about it. I ended up playing around with a bunch of mental health and meditation apps out there and came up with the app called Happy.
