Milos and I have a grand vision of how MyLifeRank can change the world and we thought the best way to show you our vision is write about it in detail on how MLR can be incorporated into a person’s daily life. We will go through four different scenarios (blog entries), each vastly different from each other and we will show how effective and how fun MyLifeRank is within their daily lives.
Casual Student:
“…I have 3 finals today and I didn’t get any sleep at all, I’m so dead tired! I hate math, I hate science and I hate history, I guess I just hate school all together. I mean what’s the point I don’t even know what I want to do when I grow up. My stupid parents took away my internet away so I wouldn’t get distracted but they didn’t take away my phone, I was on it all night lolz! I love my iPhone, I got everything I need like my Facebook and my MLR app and I can do whatever I need to without being on the computer. My friends’ status on FB were all about bitching about the finals, no new pictures of wild parties or anything fun, it was quite depressing …so I decided to see what’s up on MLR. I saw all these achievements from Becky, Jordan, Katie, Matt about how they were done studying…give me a break I bet they didn’t even open the book! I then saw a notification pop up in my inbox, I got a challenge from Dave to a math question, wtf….I accepted and I had no idea what I was doing because that problem was freakin hard. Good thing Dave didn’t know it either so we both took our times looking it up in the book, I put in my answer and submitted and I won! I never thought doing a math problem could be considered fun….I then realized it was getting late and I needed to study. I sent myself a goal to read the chapters I needed to and got to reading. A few hours later I logged back in and saw how Becky and Jordan are now level 10…wtf I’m not even level 5 yet how the hell did they level so fast! I spent the next hour finishing up goals and I got to level 7….when I’m done studying I’ll show those losers….”
Person Trying to Lose Weight:
“….I couldn’t wait to wake up this morning since today was my weigh day. I haven’t weighed myself in over a month and I couldn’t wait to see my progress. I already knew I lost weight since my clothes were much looser and I looked much better in the mirror. In either case, I wanted proof and to see for myself on the dreaded scale. After stepping on the scale my eyes watered up. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing - an 18 lb loss in weight! I got pretty emotional because I’ve been struggling with weight loss for a long time now and nothing worked. But then I found something that motivated me and kept me on track. Back in the day I never had to worry about my weight. I always ran around enough to make up for the eating but the past few years have been different. I now have a 8-5 job, a mortgage to pay, and kids to worry about. I simply don’t have the time I used to. My friends introduced me to MyLifeRank - a website that motivates people to do things through achieving goals. At first I thought it was kind of silly to join a website for weight loss but I found the tools it provided was a great help. The whole social thing and the fun spin they put on things really kept me motivated. Every week I created goals for myself whether it was to run a mile or hit the gym. Once I achieved it, my friends were able to see it and congratulate me. The more praises I heard about me achieving my goals, the more I got motivated. Another cool feature I used on MLR was the goal search feature. I would be able to find goals other members have created for certain outdoor locations. For example, last week I was taking a walk thru the forests preserve with my 4 year old. I logged into MyLifeRank on my phone and searched for goals within the area. There was a user created goal of “Reach the old mill house northeast of the yellow trail.” I followed the trail until I hit the old mill which turned out to be some kind of historical figure. I had a great time walking there with my son and I was able to take a picture and post it as an achievement. My friends were all interested in the place after seeing me achieve it, now they all say they want to do it. Honestly, I don’t know if I could have kept myself motivated and interested in weight loss if it wasn’t due to the social motivation and tools MyLifeRank provided.”
A Pizza / Pub Owner:
“…Ever since a few years ago I noticed the other restaurant owners from around the area have been going with online advertising. I’ve considered doing the same for a long time but never thought it was worth it. I looked into advertising in the yellow pages and had some marketing people come in but both options were very expensive. I wanted something that was cheap or possibility free with instant results (don’t we all) and my kids told me with the internet anything was possible. My kids helped me start a Facebook page and also got me a Twitter page for my place but neither one really seemed like it brought in any additional customers. I encourage customers to go to our Facebook page and post up positive things they like about the place. Many do and many give me the “like” push but it seems like the customer has to come in first before visiting and not vice versa. I’m also having a hard time keeping up with Twitter, I post up messages which no one seems to be viewing and I was limited with what I could say. Luckily one day, I had someone come into the store and ask me if I was interested in getting into something new and free called MyLifeRank. I gave the sales guy 5 mins to do his pitch and I liked what I heard. Basically, it seems like MyLifeRank is built like Facebook where users and businesses can interact but MyLifeRank implemented a gaming system within the site that encourages people to send and receive goals to complete which includes businesses. They said to me that I would be part of their location-based app so that users within the area can find me when searching for goals, all I have to do is create goals for people to achieve. The sales guy gave me examples and said that I should have incentives that people will want to take advantage of, like “Try out our new beer and get a 10% discount off of a pizza” or “Join our mailing list for special weekly coupons.” I decided to give MyLifeRank a try, I had my kids create a page for me and then set up a few goals with incentives for customers. At first I didn’t see anyone come in but as time went on I started to see people gradually coming in and achieving those goals I set. The set up MyLifeRank has for businesses is the best I seen so far, it provides a direct way for businesses to attract customers and giving customers and incentive to do them. Thanks MyLifeRank.”
Online Gamer:
“…it’s starting to get boring on my favorite MMORPG. All my friends and my guild members left. All I can do is play with noobs these days. I remember playing with my buds 24/7 but after they reached Level 80 they all got bored and didn’t want to pay for monthly fees anymore. I haven’t touched my dwarf hunter nor my elf knight in over a month and I’m thinking about cancelling too. I recently discovered another type of game. Well it’s not really a game but sort of?? MyLifeRank claims they are the world’s first RLG (real life game) , I guess that means it’s like a MMORPG but you’re playing yourself because that’s what it is, it’s like a site dedicated to yourself. I found this site by accident when searching for new games online and after I joined, it was kind of interesting. It’s like any other site, all the new user registration crap but then I was given a level, rank, attributes, etc…I had no idea on how to actually level or anything since there was nothing to kill or hunt but I discovered thru the site goals within my mailbox that the point of the game is to achieve goals, like real life goals. I’m like ok, I’ll just start creating goals for myself and achieve them…but then I found out if there are no friends to vote on your achievements, then you don’t get any scores…smart of them to do that! I had to get some of my old buds to join and I also found some new friends within the site and we started our adventure. We created goals for each other and challenged each other thru the site and later we discovered we can challenge each other thru the mobile app which is totally cool. Now we are always searching for new goals to do so that we can be the first ones on the site to level 60. Seems like most people on the site are pretty legit or MyLifeRank has found a good way of stopping cheating because no one seems to be moving fast on the rank scale. I also love creating goals for some of the local joints I hang out at, after all it’s my hood. Overall my friends and I are having a blast and I hope MyLifeRank can continue on and add new features so we don’t get bored. That would probably take a long time though since I can go anywhere with this app and always find something new to do!
