Built for real days

  • A smaller version every day

    Short on time or energy? Every task has a smaller version, and it counts as done.

  • Grace Days built in

    Use a Grace Day when life gets in the way. Your progress stays, and nothing resets.

  • A clear start and finish

    Tasks go from easy first steps to a simple finish, so you always know what comes next.

The 7-day plan

One task a day, from an easy start to a clear finish. The smaller version always counts as progress.

Before you start

  • Keep names and contact details out of this quest. Make your list on paper or in your own notes.
  • Every task has a smaller version that does not need a reply. You can write a message now and send it later.
  • Choose people and ways of reaching out that feel comfortable to you.

Helpful tips

  • One honest message counts as much as a long call.
  • Reaching out counts, whether or not they reply today.
  • Keep messages short. A photo, a memory, or a simple hello is enough.

Two ways to finish well

You can set a reward for each finish when you start. Both are real wins.

Perfect Finish

Every task done, with no Grace Day used. The smaller version counts as done.

Flexible Finish

Every day covered, with Grace Days where you needed them. Missed a day? You're still in.
