What Are Daily Study Goals?
Daily Study Goals help you build a consistent study habit by setting a simple target: "I want to study for X minutes today."
Once you set your goal, Memnook automatically tracks your study time and shows your progress on the left side of your screen. When you hit your goal, you'll get a fun confetti celebration! 🎉

Tips for Building Your Study Habit
Start Strong:
- Begin with an easy goal (5-15 minutes)
- Study around the same time daily
- Enable email reminders for accountability
- Celebrate those confetti moments!
Grow Your Habit:
- Be realistic - better to hit 10 minutes daily than miss 60 minutes
- Increase gradually (add 5-10 minutes when current goal feels easy)
- Adjust for busy periods rather than giving up
- Focus on consistency over perfection
