I really like the concept of this watch, but 1) I would like for it to have customizable messages, and 2) it seems too repetitive. Like maybe everyday at 4pm, this future isn't so good. What are the long term effects of being told the future is good everyday at 4pm? Will I develop a dependency on the watch to tell me how to feel at different times of the day? What happens when I travel to different time zones or heaven forbid have to make adjustments for daylight savings time?
