Why Your Alarm Clock Keeps Losing

Your morning brain is working against you. The bed feels good right now, and right now is all it cares about. The part of your brain that makes good decisions isn't fully awake yet.

This isn't a willpower problem. It's just how brains work.

An alarm can't help with any of this. You set your alarm for a reason, but your alarm doesn't remind you why it's important. It just makes noise.

What If Your Alarm Clock Was Actually You?

current and future self conversation

Behavioral scientists found that when people feel connected to their future selves, they make better choices now. Not slightly better—significantly better.

Tomorrow You is built on that research. It’s not a louder alarm. It’s a message from the person you’re trying to become.* Someone who knows what you’re working toward, what you’re struggling with, and what hitting snooze actually costs you.


Set Your Future Self on Repeat

Step 1: Create Your Future Self Avatar

Upload your photo and your future self avatar appears automatically. This isn't just visualization—research shows seeing your future self dramatically improves long-term thinking. Meet the person you'll become.

Step 2: Schedule Your Wake-Up Messages

Identify your weakness moments (5am snooze button, 9pm doom-scrolling) and set reminders from your future self for those exact times. Not generic alerts—messages from you to you.

Step 3: Text Back to Your Future Self

Reply naturally to check-ins to easily track progress. No spreadsheets, no guilt trips—just someone who gets it because they are you.

My Future Self Helped Me Lose 50 Pounds

I spent twenty years building products designed to keep people buying and scrolling—variable rewards, streaks, notifications. I knew every trick because I helped design them.

At 47, I was 255 pounds and one point away from diabetes. Even knowing how these systems worked, I couldn't out-will them.

Then I found research by behavioral scientist Hal Hershfield showing that connecting with your future self increases long-term motivation. So I built a prototype that sent me daily messages from my older self.

The first morning, my instinct was to hit snooze. Then I realized: I wasn't silencing an alarm clock. I was sabotaging my future self. My first conscious thought each morning became "should I ignore the message from my future self?" A beep is easy to stop. A reminder of your future potential is hard to dismiss. I lost 50 pounds—and two years later, I'm still down.

I built Tomorrow You because I needed it. Now I'm sharing it with anyone else who knows what to do but keeps not doing it.
