How does Yez3 help you stick with a hobby?

Hobbies are the first thing to slide when life gets busy. Yez3 keeps them alive until you get where you wanted: speaking the language, playing the song, holding your finished book. Use any app, course or teacher — your AI coach remembers what you're working toward, breaks big projects into pieces and checks in when you've drifted away.

Why do we keep putting off the things we enjoy?

Nobody makes you do them. Work has a boss, bills have due dates — but the guitar in the corner, the half-read book and the course you paid for can always wait. They wait for a free weekend, then for a calmer month. Meanwhile, "someday" keeps moving further away.

  • 55% of Americans who make New Year's resolutions set goals about hobbies and personal interests — Pew Research Center, 2024.

  • Among adults under 45, 23% want to learn something new this year, versus 9% of those 45 and older — YouGov, December 2025.

  • "Write a book" was the #3 most popular goal on 43 Things, one of the largest goal-sharing communities.

Wanting to is the easy part. Making room for it every day is what Yez3 helps with.

Picture the difference

Who do you want to be a year from now?

Not someone who "always wanted to". Someone who did.

Someone who speaks Spanish. Not "I took a few lessons once".

A musician. Not someone who "used to play a little".

A reader. 20 books a year instead of one on your nightstand.

An author. Your book finished, not "someday".

A great cook. The dinner your friends still talk about.

Your goal. Your pace.

What do you want to make time for?

Pick what fits you — your coach will build your first plan around it.

Your starting point: Learn a language

Start with my goal
In your corner

Quit before? Start where you stopped.

Almost everyone has a hobby they dropped: the course at lesson 4, the novel at chapter 2, the guitar after three weeks. That's not failure — you already know where you stopped. Yez3 helps you come back with a step small enough to restart today, not from the beginning.

  • Writes first. When something has been stuck for more than 5 days, your coach checks in.
  • Remembers your why. The trip to Spain, the song for your daughter's birthday — your coach keeps it and reminds you.
  • Streaks without guilt. Mark days off in advance. Earn streak freezes for strong weeks — a missed day won't erase months of practice.
  • Tough or gentle. Choose a coach who holds you to your word or one who supports without pressure.
CoachExample conversation
Coach

You haven't touched "Spanish lesson" in 9 days. Want to pick it back up?

Yeah, but I fell so far behind. Feels pointless.

Coach

You're not starting over — you've already done Spanish on 23 days. How about just one review lesson tomorrow? 5 minutes, on your Minimum.

Ok, fine.

Coach

Done. "One Spanish review lesson" is on tomorrow's Minimum.

Do I have to stop using my language or music app?

No — keep it. Language apps, music lessons, online courses, reading trackers: they're great at teaching. Yez3 makes sure you actually show up for them, next to everything else in your day.

  • One plan for all your hobbies. Spanish, guitar and reading — in the same daily plan as work and family.
  • Projects with a finish line. Not just "practice daily" but "finish the course", "write the draft", "learn 10 songs".
  • One coach for everything. It knows your whole day, so it can find room for your hobby in it.
More than a check on a list

What's it for?

A hobby is never just a hobby. It's who you want to be. Tell your coach your reason; it remembers it and reminds you on evenings when the couch looks better.

A conversation on your next trip. Not just ordering coffee.

The song you always wanted to play. For yourself, or for someone you love.

Your own book. Finished, not "someday".

Time that's just yours. Something that isn't work or chores.

The first step is the smallest

How do I start?

  1. Tell us your goal and your reason. A short quiz — your coach builds your first plan from your answers.
  2. Get today's small step. A Minimum you can do on a long day, plus 100% and Maximum for free evenings.
  3. Close your Minimum every day. Your coach checks in, helps you come back after a break, and your streak grows.

What else helps you keep going?

Recurring tasks

Guitar every evening, Spanish on weekdays, a museum once a month — they land in the right plan automatically.

Reminders

"Read before bed" at 10 pm.

Focus timer

Full-screen sessions for writing, practice or study: 25 minutes on, 5 off, with background sounds.

Brain dump & voice

Say everything on your mind — books to buy, songs to learn, ideas for the next chapter — and Yez3 turns it into tasks.

History

See which days you made time for your hobby over the last 6 weeks.

Coach memory

Your goal, your reason, where you stopped last time — the coach remembers it, and you can edit anything.

How is Yez3 different from a habit tracker or a learning app?

A learning app teaches one subject. A habit tracker counts check-marks. Yez3 helps you finish what you started — any hobby, with a plan for busy days and a coach who notices when you drift away.

Small steps, grounded in research

What does research say about sticking with new skills?

Hobbies are a top goal. 55% of resolution makers set goals about hobbies and personal interests — more than about work or career (49%). — Pew Research Center, 2024

Smaller goals are reached more often. In a study of 1.4 million app users, people with the smallest goals reached them about three times as often as those with the biggest. — Gordon, Althoff & Leskovec, Stanford, WWW 2019

"Do" beats "don't". In a year-long experiment with 1,066 people, 58.9% of goals framed as "do something" were reported successful, versus 47.1% of goals framed as "stop something". That's why your Minimum says "Play 5 minutes", not "Stop skipping practice". — Oscarsson et al., PLOS ONE, 2020

These studies are about goals in general, not about Yez3.

Frequently asked questions

Can Yez3 teach me a language or an instrument?

No. Yez3 doesn't teach — it helps you keep learning. Use any app, course, teacher or book you like, and Yez3 puts the practice on your daily plan, reminds you and checks in when you skip. Your learning app teaches; Yez3 makes sure you show up.

I've started and quit many times. Why would this work?

Most plans start too big: an hour a day, every day. Yez3 starts with a Minimum small enough for your busiest day, like 5 minutes of practice. When you drift away, your coach helps you restart where you stopped instead of from the beginning.

How much time do I need each day?

Your Minimum can be 5 minutes — two pages, one lesson, one sketch. On free evenings you can do more. Ten minutes a day adds up to more than 60 hours a year, which is enough to make real progress in almost any hobby.

Can I track several hobbies at once?

Yes. Put guitar, reading and Spanish in the same daily plan, next to work and family tasks. Your coach helps you decide what goes on the Minimum, so you don't overload a busy day.

What if I miss a few days?

Nothing dramatic. Your coach helps you get back with a small step. Days you mark as days off never break your streak, and earned streak freezes can protect it automatically.

How much does Yez3 cost?

Yez3 is a subscription with a free trial for new subscribers. The price depends on your country and is shown in the App Store or Google Play before you pay. You can try the mobile app as a guest first — no sign-up — and create an account later to keep your progress.
