This tool was built by Serge using established research and public data. My work focuses on the practical side of focus, habits, and discipline. My tools are for educational purposes and give practical guidance, not professional advice.

Steady effort tends to outlast motivation bursts. This scorecard looks at the last two weeks and gives you a score based on how often you showed up and how evenly you showed up, not just how hard you worked on your best days.

How this works

Your frequency score is the share of the last 14 days you completed the habit. Your steadiness score reflects how close your motivation level and effort level are to each other. A large gap between "wanted to" and "full effort" suggests uneven, burst-driven activity. The two scores are averaged into a single Consistency Index from 0 to 100.

Understanding your result

A score of 75 or above is labeled Steady. A score between 50 and 74 is labeled Mixed. Below 50 is labeled Burst-driven. Research on motivation suggests that habits supported by genuine interest and a sense of capability tend to hold up better over time than habits driven mainly by external pressure or short bursts of willpower.

Important note

This scorecard uses self-rated sliders, not objective measurement. The result is a general reflection, not a diagnostic score. Treat a low score as a prompt to look at your setup, not as a judgment of your character or effort.

Scientific basis

The framing behind this scorecard draws on motivation research distinguishing steady, internally driven effort from effort dependent on outside pressure:

• American Psychological Association: Self-Determination Theory
• Self-Determination Theory: Official theory overview (Deci & Ryan)
