I was thinking about building an AI-powered journaling app for myself, but I think it would be geared less toward goals and more toward a deeper understanding of myself, my life, and what paths to forge in the years ahead.

I'm 53 and I've had an incredibly productive and fulfilling life already, with ten times more adventure to come. I spend more time pondering my life and the choices I have in front of me than actually doing work many days, which is a normal evolution. When you're young, you have no experience, money, skills, knowledge, or much else to offer except time and energy. So it makes sense to just go hard all the time.

But once you've acquired knowledge, wisdom, skills, experience, and money you have infinitely more choices available and more things to consider.

So at this stage of my life, I'm looking for an AI that knows all about me and my life, both physically and philosophically, so it can help me ponder my life and the choices that I have in front of me.

So I would journal more about my personality, preferences, experiences, and philosophies than I would be with goal-oriented things like clocking my morning run times or coding achievements.

I just thought I'd throw that at you in hopes it might trigger an idea that helps you build a better app.
