Who: Tony Stubblebine
App: Lift.do
Listen to This Episode
I am so excited for today's interview. My guest is none other than Tony Stubblebine, a man who is pretty much entirely obsessed with behavior change and how people pick up new habits.
Having been a part of different startup projects such as Twitter, Wesabe, CrowdVine, and Lift, Tony Stubblebine has learned so much about what it takes to be successful in his business.
He is co-founder of the Lift app, which is making behavior change easier for everyone and is an app that I use to get stuff done.
It has impacted a lot of entrepreneurs in prioritizing and accomplishing end goals with positive reinforcement and community support.
I started using the lift app a few months ago. It's very simple. You create your goals, and you use the app to help you accomplish those goals.
Every day, you “check in” to say that you've completed the goal. However, it's not just a to-do list. It's a community. There are many people working on the same goals, and they cheer each other on. It's a beautiful thing.
Inside This Episode
I get Tony to talk about a bunch of stuff, including:
- Where the idea for the lift app came from and how they chose the name
- How lift works and also WHY it works so well
- The importance of setting goals
- How specific we should get with creating our goals
- How can we, as bloggers, accomplish the goals that we've set
- How the coaching plans work on lift
- Much, much more.
I have a confession to make. When I switched from iPhone to Android, I stopped using the lift app. Guess what happened? I became SIGNIFICANTLY less productive. The lift app helps to keep me on task and actually get stuff done.
I've since added the lift app website to my Android phone and I'm getting back on it. I gotta get stuff done 😉
