Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate you taking the time to review!

As for my business model, you pay what you feel it's worth. At the end of every month, you can review your progress and set your price. While that might not be a contemporary method, I feel that each individual will probably derive different levels of value from Habbit. :)

You might want to do some kind of emotional connection before "donating" paying (1), and review the studies on "pay what you wish".

I can't find the best one I saw (which I believe said to set a default price), but I found these others:

this one is long, but has a section on "pay what you wish" midway through.

(1) I mean something like saying: "you accomplished X goal this month !!!". Probably someone else has more specific advice :) , I've never tried pay-as-you wish myself, but seen lots of previous advice here!
