Motivational Messages

Standup Reminder	Break Reminder	Lunch Reminder	End of Day Reminder	Tests

This is a Github Actions based framework that is meant to send motivational messages via the Pushover app for the typical work day! However, if you want to try running this locally, continue reading on to see how.

This project utilizes Pipedream along with cron-job.org to use an external scheduler for each of the reminders. Therefore, you will not see the scheduled times in the workflows despite them routinely running.
