Mindfulness, acceptance, and productivity.
The Mind Fulfillment section, what is it about? Is it mindfulness? Is it self-help? Is it productivity? What?
I would say, it’s a bit of all of the above. With a bit of acceptance and values/commitment included.
Mind Fulfillment is acceptance, commitment, and productivity wrapped together to form a tool to make your life into what you want it to be.

The first step towards failure is believing failure is impossible.

Well, all you need is an installation of the desktop version of Microsoft Outlook and some time to set it up.
