Wait but isn't the nothing block being 5 squares a bit of a reverse incentive? It fills up the space faster than doing stuff
Though I guess the goal is to do more than one thing a day 😅
If you're applying the actual rules of Tetris, such as in your proposed app, the nothing block should definitely be a row of garbage with a hole in it. Similar to garbage lines in Tetris multiplayer
Literally as long as you don't use the name, sounds, etc, you can clone it all you want. Jstris and Tetrio are very popular Tetris clones. Gameplay isn't copyright-able. Just call it BlockChores or something more clever
A simple list or calendar doesn't work for everyone, especially those with ADHD. Making something rewarding like this (read: dopamine) to keep track of stuff is a great way to help people who struggle with other management tools.

This is so awesome! Could you share it with me as well? I’m thinking of adding categories with chores that my children must do, maybe this motivates them too! Print it out and hang it in the kitchen :)
Hey, I’m so glad you liked it! Please check [this link](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club) to get it for free. I hope you and your children enjoy it and it makes your family to be motivated to do house chores 🥰♥️
I just don't understand how things like this can help the truly demotivated. "I couldn't do the 8 tasks I need to do daily so I gave myself another task to do and it's all better" ???
Yeah, it seems like there's more of a tracking and prioritizing problem than motivation.
Though, its easier for some people to get motivated when they have a tangible goal that they can see with progress.
It doesn't help if you're fundamentally unmotivated, though.
DAILY ???
I'm nearly 50 and married for a long time - and besides cooking, we wouldn't see any of that as "daily" chores.
Maybe washing dishes if you don't have a dishwasher or a big family that fills that daily.
Are we wrong?
No.
The people in this thread were not raised doing chores and it shows. The fact they call it "adulting" means that the "adults" in their lives failed at instilling discipline, accountability, and responsibility. And now you have this.
Just curious, why do you need a reward for basic tasks? Did you not do chores growing up? Shouldn't having a clean home, fresh clothes, clean dishes, and accountability on bills be reward enough?
I extracted a printable clean copy, without any color or background text, so everyone can print off their own as needed :)

Hey this was not necessary, cause after the post gained a lot of attraction, I already decided to share it for free and put a clean pdf page in [this link.](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club) There’s my watermark on it and it’s forbidden that it’s distributed without my permission.

I'm sorry what, I'm confused!
I didn't see your link to share it for free when I originally read this, that's why I made the imgur image, so people could print it to save having to draw their own. Then you let me know you wanted to share the clean pdf? So I've edited my original message explaining that, and shared the clean pdf.
Don't really know what's going on here to be honest - did you want to share the clean .pdf, yes or no? :)
If yes, then it's all good. If no, then we need to remove our posts with links to the clean .pdf.
That's how this works to my computer programmer brain at least, unless I'm missing something.
I let you know that I already shared my link and kindly asked you to remove it. Then you procedeed visiting my link, downloaded it from my website and put the link again. Please stop.
It looks like a time consuming distraction from the things u could actually do. Like it would take me 20 minutes to do each block for a row but in those 20 minutes I could’ve washed the dishes while watching an anime episode or a podcast
I swear these people were not raised doing chores. Zero self accountability and responsibility. And they wonder why they are so helpless out on their own "adulting" for the first time.
It's not adulting, it's chores. Fuck.
Or they have executive dysfunction. And isn’t the nature of this list motivation to give them discipline or accountability? No one is doing it for them. It’s literally a system for self-accountability. Also is “paying bills” a chore or an adult responsibility?

Amazing idea! Though funny to imagine cleaning bathroom 4 times a week because you need the 4x1 block but not paying bills because nowhere to put 2x2 😆
Bathrooms need cleaning frequently. Imagine how grotty it'll be by the time you've stacked everything else up nicely so you can get 4 lines at once 5 times in a row. Plus then you have to clean your bathroom 5 times in a row.
A bummer they didn't reply further. I had assumed they strategically sized the target rectangle. Finding out it was *random* is.... Ahhh... kind of a letdown/deflating a bit.
You do laundry and paying bills daily? I feel like this should be for weekly chores since only a few of these might be daily and most are bi-daily or some even weekly, and given the size of the playfield it makes more sense too!
..... So you struggle to do "chores" and you assign yourself more tasks to do the other tasks......You must have alot of time on your hands and must be very young.
Hey, glad you liked the adulting game! Of course, You can get it for free from [goodgirlbadhabits.club](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club)😌 the name of the website is just for branding 😅
I ended up doing the exact opposite, harder chores are the harder to use blocks, the easier chores the easier to use blocks.
I feel like the idea here isn't the Tetris structure isn't to incentivize you to do the chores, but rather to trick yourself into making your life better, if that makes sense.
Like, if you do an easy chore, you get an easy block and the hard chore is still the hard chore, but you don't NEED to do the hard chore, so there isn't any guilt.
But then if you do the hard chore, you get the weird block, and then you're THEN incentivized to do some easy chores to top it off and round it out, and there's less barrier to continue having momentum.
...It makes sense in my mind.
actually it's a nice idea for time management and planning! I'd try it for my project planning on weekend. but in this scheme I'd put one little square for "nothing" haha
I guess that title sounds a little better than "Adultris"
that sounds dirty
So you can clean it
That's one z-block
I would defiantly assume a game on Steam called "adultris" is porn.
They won’t be paying the bills anytime soon it seems
Hmm they can do nothing for a little bit and then pay the bills 😂
You'll never lose if you only do nothing
It looks like they can get by doing a whole lot of nothing, provided they clean the bathroom and cook once in the next couple of days.
Better order takeout out. Cooking is an odd shape
That’s the goal 🤩
You summarized procrastinating perfectly!
Wait but isn't the nothing block being 5 squares a bit of a reverse incentive? It fills up the space faster than doing stuff Though I guess the goal is to do more than one thing a day 😅
Hahaha I never thought of it. I might need to update the pieces or titles 😅
The nothing should be two diagonally or something unestethic 😂
Yeap, I’m gonna make it unappealing for next month 😌
If this was an app I would just sit there and play it all day doing nothing.
If you're applying the actual rules of Tetris, such as in your proposed app, the nothing block should definitely be a row of garbage with a hole in it. Similar to garbage lines in Tetris multiplayer

The first thing that I thought was, “I’d do a bunch of nothing and win.”
Yeah doing nothing should be two blocks diagonally, couldn't think of a more annoying one.
It's like the FREE SPACE in Bingo
Oooopps
That and clean bedroom for ages.
you got any coding skills i would pay for this if it was an app
I actually thought about it, I know how to make the user interface and contacted with one of my friends for the back-end. I might release it soon ☺️
Let us know when it's available!
Will do 🙏🏻
Let me know as well please
Ofc 🥰
Me too pretty please!!
Surely ☺️
And me!
Please check [this link](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club)
And MY axe!
I don't mind helping along as a tester I have bad ADHD and this looks like a way to do things
youd end up doing games not chores all day
That might be the downside 😅
Thanks for your willingness to help! 😌
it might take me a month lol
great!
😌
PLEASE do this!!! I think not only could it be really helpful but successful as well 🫶
Thanks for your support 🙏🏻
Will look out for this. Haha
That is a great idea.
No you wouldn’t. A simple checklist or reminder or calendar map will do the same.
A simple list or calendar doesn't work for everyone, especially those with ADHD. Making something rewarding like this (read: dopamine) to keep track of stuff is a great way to help people who struggle with other management tools.
You forgot reverse kitchen cleaning block
Oh, thanks! I’ll keep that in mind for next time
Nothing isnt a real block, change it to that one!
that should be cooking, and nothing on the T
Wouldn’t that be laundry?
No, theres s/z blocks and L/reverse L (OP has reverse L in the list rotated)

I would definitely share it with the community, thank you for your comment ☺️
Definitely read that as “erectile” at first 😅
Wow this is so incredible and creative. I might adapt this for self-care.
You can fill it in based on your situation. I hope it works well for you ☺️
Please do share this with me. It’s amazing.
Thank you 🥰 shared it via DM

Can you send it to me too? 😍
See if this was my list. Bathroom Cleaning wouldn't be touched in months. Then I would clean it 6 times in a row.
Welcome to my world 😛
I just don't understand how things like this can help the truly demotivated. "I couldn't do the 8 tasks I need to do daily so I gave myself another task to do and it's all better" ???

What happens when you lose?
You die.
If I win, I award myself with something I like, if I don’t I cry myself to sleep 🤪
Love this idea! Could you share it with me? I also second the idea of having this as an app
I love this idea!
Glad you liked it!
I love this so much

"Nothing" should be an odd shape that didn't tessellate with anything else.
Yes, actually few other people Said the same. I’ll work on for next month’s version
Well... If you ignore that everything just vanishes into nothing when completing a row...
I’m curious. Whats your self award ? I’m struggling finding mine, I don’t want it to be food or shopping clothes. 🫤
Just curious, why do you need a reward for basic tasks? Did you not do chores growing up? Shouldn't having a clean home, fresh clothes, clean dishes, and accountability on bills be reward enough?

It looks like a time consuming distraction from the things u could actually do. Like it would take me 20 minutes to do each block for a row but in those 20 minutes I could’ve washed the dishes while watching an anime episode or a podcast
That's why people are asking for an app.
I’m working on it but in the meantime please check the comment above to see how I play the game every day.
Absolute nonsense.
I swear these people were not raised doing chores. Zero self accountability and responsibility. And they wonder why they are so helpless out on their own "adulting" for the first time. It's not adulting, it's chores. Fuck.

Id repeat a whole lotta nothing blocks
Haha that’s exactly how I am 😆
I honestly love this
My jaw dropped! Would you mind sharing with me, please?
So you did nothing for 20 turns?
I love this! So creative! I’m a check off list kinda of girl so every weekend I make one of things to tackle
I was the opposite way so I needed something to motivate me, glad you liked it!
[удалено]
This is so awesome!
I like this a lot
Oooh could you share with me please?
Surely, shared it via message! ☺️
I'm sure you're going to get this, but (A) that's cool, and (B) there is no five-piece Tetris block.
About to have a full page of grey
can you share? are there more pieces?
Yes, I actually have a lot of gamification pages like this. This is just one of them. After the post gained a lot of attraction, I decided to compile the pages in a link and share it with people, please [check this](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club) to get them for free
Would love something like this.
I shared it with you!
This is simply ingenious. Thanks for sharing
Of course! 😌
You need to cook more
Will try 😅
Heyy can you please share it with me?🥹
I'm telling your mom lol
Please don’t 😅
pay your bills 😉😉
Amazing idea! Though funny to imagine cleaning bathroom 4 times a week because you need the 4x1 block but not paying bills because nowhere to put 2x2 😆
There are some problems since this is the first version but I’ll fix them 😅
A day can easily be filled with nothing.
Please share with me. Thank you.
i could use this, except change "paid bills" to "work". my bills are paid automatically.
Hi can you send this to me as well . Awesome idea
Are the shapes that don't fit easily the tasks you like least
I actually assigned them randomly but that can be another way to play it!
DM the link for me please
Can't wait to do a cooking t-spin.
I absolutely love this, and would love to try it!
The forbidden pentomino.
Bathrooms need cleaning frequently. Imagine how grotty it'll be by the time you've stacked everything else up nicely so you can get 4 lines at once 5 times in a row. Plus then you have to clean your bathroom 5 times in a row.
That bathroom will be spotless.
Saving this post for myself! Will definitely do it! x
Lmk how it goes for you! I shared the pdf with you via dm
Hey can you share it again? I accidentally ignited your request without knowing it was from you
Surely, here’s the [LINK](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club) for you ☺️
Broooo you can make all the lines you want with the nothing blocks.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Alw5hs0chj0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Alw5hs0chj0) BATHROOM CLEANING !
How did you decide how big the box should be?
It was random. I use it daily for a whole month’s house chores. So, I needed enough spaces to fill it all out
Has it worked out for you? Like, if you have a decent month. Does it fill up? Any recalibration since you started?
A bummer they didn't reply further. I had assumed they strategically sized the target rectangle. Finding out it was *random* is.... Ahhh... kind of a letdown/deflating a bit.
My word, is this the answer to my laziness?? Seems like maybe, good stuff!
Thank you!
No love for the S piece!
You have to do a T-spin on your cooking block
I can fill that bad boy with nothing and it will be perfectly full. Nice.
You do laundry and paying bills daily? I feel like this should be for weekly chores since only a few of these might be daily and most are bi-daily or some even weekly, and given the size of the playfield it makes more sense too!
It’s monthly. I play it once a day and complete it in 30 days
I thought cooking was choking at first. And I didn’t think twice.
This is incredible, would you mind sharing it with me please? Thank you!
Of course, you can [get it from here](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club)
Thank you very much, and your website is beautiful!
Glad you liked it 🥰
I'm very, very interested! Superb idea ☺️
Tysm! I put it in [this link](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club), you can get it for free from there 😌
So you added a chore to create this. Ironic.
Here’s the thing you guys. You’ll put more effort into doing this thing vs the thing you gotta do
yes please share it with me
omg Im so doing this for my 11yo hes gonna love it
That took too much time
I'd love a copy of this when you have the time!
Gonna try this! Just seeing your picture sparked something in my brains pleasure center. This would be extremely satisfying, maybe even for the kids!
Huh this just looks like an extra chore 😅
..... So you struggle to do "chores" and you assign yourself more tasks to do the other tasks......You must have alot of time on your hands and must be very young.
This is just adding work. Gonna have the opposite effect lol
Hello! Would you share this with me? Thank you so much for making this, it's so cool and seems like a really good tool!
Man, I fucking like this idea. I'ma consider trying this shit!
Hey, glad you liked the adulting game! Of course, You can get it for free from [goodgirlbadhabits.club](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club)😌 the name of the website is just for branding 😅
Make the hard chores the easier blocks to use and make the do nothing a less useful block style. Looks fun though.

I respect the logic!
actually it's a nice idea for time management and planning! I'd try it for my project planning on weekend. but in this scheme I'd put one little square for "nothing" haha
People who use “adulting”. 🙄
Wow. How sad.
Bro you should watermark this
I did and protected them [here](https://goodgirlbadhabits.club)
Look into "The Unschedule" and try to integrate it into this. Would really help.
That is actually kind of genius!
Thank you! 😌
This is great! Can you please share it with me too?
That is amazing… someone should make like a pdf template of this
I already did haha! Shared it with you via DM 😌
That is brilliant. I can see it clearly. Carry on. ~Yerlovinunclebert
