Since we all are busy, losing touch with our real selves, goals, and ways to grow as people is easy. Understanding this, I’m excited to say that we are currently creating “InnerCompass,” a unique app that will serve as your personal guide on your path to self-discovery and growth. Thanks to my son Sunnie Kapar, who is studying Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, the app is almost done.
What is InnerCompass?
I published the self-assessment tool a few months ago. That’s what InnerCompass is all about. InnerCompass isn’t just an app; it’s a way to think about yourself, evaluate yourself, and grow as a person. It starts with the idea that getting to know yourself is the key to growing as a person and in your career. InnerCompass gives you a structured but flexible way to look at your feelings, goals, strengths, and weaknesses.
The Significance of the Name
The name “InnerCompass” encapsulates the essence of the app – it’s about finding your internal compass, that guiding force which helps you navigate life’s challenges and decisions. Just as a traditional compass points towards the magnetic north, InnerCompass aims to guide you toward your true north, core values and goals.
Core Features of InnerCompass
- Self-Assessment Tools: Through a series of thoughtfully crafted questions belonging to different categories, InnerCompass helps you gauge your current state in various aspects of life – professional skills, personal growth, emotional well-being, or social relationships.
- Goal Setting and Tracking: It allows you to set personal and professional goals and track your progress towards achieving them. This feature is designed to keep you aligned with your aspirations and accountable for your actions.
Our Future:
- Reflective Journaling: Offering a space for daily reflection, InnerCompass encourages users to journal their thoughts, experiences, and learnings. This practice fosters mindfulness and deeper self-awareness.
- Periodic check-in: InnerCompass will send you half-yearly or quarterly reminders (based on your preference), asking you to reflect on where you are.
- Personalized Insights: Based on your interactions, the app provides insights and feedback, highlighting areas of strength and suggesting improvements in weaker zones.
- Resource Library: Access a curated collection of articles, podcasts, and videos on personal development, emotional intelligence, productivity, and more.
Why InnerCompass?
InnerCompass is a personal retreat for reflection and clarity in a world filled with external noise and distractions.

You can start a journey of self-discovery with InnerCompass. Your values, goals, and inner strength will help you every step of the way. This app isn’t just for finding yourself; it helps you make yourself. The app is still being developed, and we will finalize the final components after testing. Do wait for more news on InnerCompass.
