Here is a selection of apps that what we consider to be the most powerful for personal development like improving social confidence, setting goals and focusing.

IDareTo

For increasing social confidence thru comfort zone challenges. A comfort zone challenge is to seek up a situation that triggers social fear. By doing it over and over again the brain gets desensitized, allowing you to do things like holding a presentation to a large audience.

For transparency, the IDareTo app was created by DareCircle, so yes, we do have an interest in spreading the app. Although we think it offers great value. If the concept resonates with you, give it a try.

  • Bite sized comfort zone challenges
  • Four difficulty levels
  • Track your development
