Thesis Statement: Social media and screen-time have a direct impact on your personal well-being. I will create a deck of cards & an application that aid in personal well-being. Inspired by the tarot’s major arcana and a lens of behaviorial psychology, I will create symbols & weekly prompts. This system has been designed to improve the mental health of others by slowly teaching people to use their devices in smaller increments & to engage in activites outside of the digital world.

Process: This project gave me the opportunity to actually plan out a complete timeline from start to finish. I was able to hold to my timeline well aside from some small adjustments. I initially planned on sending out the packaging and cards to be produced by a third party, but i took a stab at doing it myself and I am proud of the outcome.

Takeaways: The biggest takeaway I had within this project is understanding that is okay if you can’t execute all of your ideas, it is more important to focus on the most valuable ones, and to do them well.
