Why did you create thirteenvirtues.com?

Because.

Well, to elaborate, we think that Franklin was a pretty smart guy and figured that his simple plan still has relevance, even today.

How do you use thirteenvirtues.com?

It's easy. When you login, you will see a green grid. Across the top, you will see a column for the last several days. Along the left side, there is a row for each virtue you are tracking. Every time you feel you have not lived up to one of your virtues, simply click the corresponding cell and watch it turn red. We hope that you won't often have to use thirteenvirtues.com but, if you are like us, you will be seeing a lot of red.

Can I change the order my virtues are displayed in?

Yep. Just click on the Manage Virtues link at the top right of the page. From there, you can reorder your virtues by dragging the green handle next to each virtue. Simply drag the virtue to its desired position and the next time you view your grid it will reflect the new order.

Note: You will not see be able to access the Manage Virtues page unless you are logged in.

I don't believe in chastity.

Well, I think old Ben struggled with this one as well. If Franklin's original virtues don't suit you, change them! Using the Manage Virtues page, you can reorder, rename, delete, and add virtues.

Note: You will not see be able to access the Manage Virtues page unless you are logged in.

So, I can track any virtues I want?

Absolutely. And they really don't have to even be virtues. Really, you can track whatever things you want to avoid on a daily basis. Maybe you are trying to quit smoking or biting your fingernails. Go ahead an track them. If you come up with any clever ideas using thirteenvirtues.com, we love to hear from you.
