Setting constant reminders is a good life hack. Sometimes I wonder if I might be better at life with a haptic tap on the wrist every ten minutes, like just a nudge to think if I am doing what I want to do.

The real trick would be for it to be able to tell whether what you're doing is what you want to be doing so it doesn't interrupt you when you already are.

You can use a thumb counter (a small clicker on your thumb) to count how many times you were able to get yourself back on track

I have an Apple Watch app that does this! It's called Tap Me Every X Minutes.[1] (I'm not the creator, no affiliation, just a happy user.)
Every so often I'll decide to track/log my time and activities every 15 minutes over a few days, just to keep tabs on where my time and energy are really going. This app fits the bill: it's silent and unobtrusive to others and it's never failed to perform properly for me. I just wish it had an option to display a countdown timer for the upcoming tap.
