People don’t always quit because

People don’t always quit because they’re lazy. They quit because they’re mentally exhausted. Think about it for a sec! Deadlines, habits, metrics, progress, when all of that lives in your head, everything feels heavier than it actually is. You forget the days you showed up. You remember the gaps more than the consistency. One quiet thing a really good products does is to take the weight off the mind. Instead of asking users to “stay disciplined,” they make progress visible. Instead of relying on memory, they turn effort into something you can glance at. Small signals. Clear patterns. No pressure, just proof. The perfect mix. That shift changes behavior more than motivation ever will.

I am curious, how you think about reducing mental load in the products you build? 🤔
