iCompass is a proposed central virtual platform that empowers users to set, track, and achieve personal goals in a secure and trusted environment. It offers tools for visualization, planning, and collaboration tailored to individual privacy preferences while fostering a supportive community. The concept aims to bridge the gap in the current digital landscape by providing a space for self-actualization and goal achievement.

to
cheer
you
on
and
to
achieve!
There
is

iCompass
is
a
concept
that
arose
out
of
Satya's
5,
Chipping
Hill
Court
introspec2on
about
the
constant
dis-­‐aggrega2on
and
re-­‐aggrega2on
of
the
known
Wheelers
Hill
(change
is
the
constant,
unnerving
and
exci2ng
at
the
same
2me),
desire
to
Melbourne,
Victoria
–
3150
encourage
posi2ve
living
(believe
in
self,
be
posi2ve,
START,
in
Life:
there
are
only
Australia
privileges
and
no
en2tlements)
and
realiza2on
of
one’s
poten2al
(there
is
and
this
deserves
to
be
encouraged
and
pursued)
–
a
shio
towards
specie
from
fiat
living.
He
is
a
student
of
history,
philosophy,
behavioral
economics
and
humani2es
and
firmly
believes
in
“greater
good
is
self
good”.
Satya
is
keen
to
work
with
a
commiaed
team
of
technologists
to
convert
the
iCompass
concept
into
reality.
