Life Goals Program

Welcome aboard

Build the life you actually want, on a schedule you can keep.

Three short sittings, about 20 minutes each, take you from your values to a Summit Goal and a plan for today. You start with the essentials, and the full system is one tap away whenever you want it. After that, the app nudges you back to your plan every week, month, quarter, and year.

Nothing is graded. Nothing is shared. The app saves itself. Your data lives only in your browser. Show up at your own pace.

The methodology

Built on what actually works.

Not another to-do app. Every step is built on an established method. Open each one below to see how it works.

• Values · pick a hand of five from a values deck and rank them

  Pick the five values that are most you. The dealer offers five cards at a time. You swap cards between the table and your hand until the five you hold truly fit you.

  • Play your hand of value cards. Tap a card on the table, then a card you hold, and they trade places.
  • Rank your five values. Drag them left and right until the order feels right.
  • The card in first position is your North Star. You use it to decide when two of your values would lead to different choices.

  You then carry your top five through the app. They shape how you score your life areas, what you write in your vision, and which goals you keep in a busy week.

• Strengths Profile · an optional three-minute check on how you work best

  A quick self-portrait of how you work. Two rounds of word picking: five words that feel most like you, then three that trip you up. The words reshuffle every 20 seconds so you answer on instinct, and you can switch that timer off.

  • Five dimensions. Energy, Cooperation, Structure, Sensitivity, Curiosity.
  • Sharpen your profile later. An optional 20-statement pass gives you firmer scores.
  • Every watch-out gets a plan. You back it with one of your own strengths.

  The result travels with you: a hint on your purpose line, a lens on your Summit Goals, and habit ideas that suit you. The step is optional and never blocks the next one.

• Life Areas Map · rate 10 life areas, the gaps show where to focus

  Ten areas of your life, scored twice. You rate each one for how satisfied you are today, and for how much weight it should carry in the years ahead.

  • Satisfaction, 0 to 10. How content you are with this area right now.
  • Importance, 0 to 10. How much it should count going forward.
  • Priority. Ten minus your satisfaction, times importance. A weak score in an area you care about gives the highest priority.

  The two highest get a star for the rest of the app, and your goals come from those two areas. You also note what sits outside your control, which changes the kind of goal that fits.

• Vision Interview · a vivid picture of your future self in five years

  You write from inside one specific day, five years out. The app interviews you about that morning: the room, the sounds, the people, what you do first. You answer in present tense, as if you were already there.

  • Plan A. The best version of the path you are on now.
  • Plan B. What you would build if that path disappeared tomorrow.
  • Plan C. The version where nothing holds you back: no money worries, no expectations.

  The more concrete the picture, the more it changes what you decide today. You re-read it at every monthly check-in, and the Summit Goal you write next comes straight out of it.

• Summit Goal · one bold, dated outcome 5 to 10 years out

  Set one Summit Goal per focus area. Make it concrete enough that someone else could check whether you reached it, and far enough away that it takes years. Five to ten years is the usual distance.

  • One verb, one number, one date. It should fit in a single sentence.
  • Big enough to feel out of reach today. If it feels comfortable, push it further out.
  • Anchored in what you care about. It has to still matter on hard days.

  Everything under it points back to this goal: your annual goals, your quarter, your week, today. You revisit the wording once a year, because you are allowed to change it.

• If-then plan · decide your counter-moves in advance

  You decide the counter-move before the obstacle arrives. Each annual goal carries a Friction Map: what you want, what success would look like, and the things that have stopped you before, named specifically.

  • Sort each obstacle. Yours to control or context, one-off or recurring.
  • In your control. An if-then line: if this happens, then I do that.
  • Recurring context. A setup change so it fires less often.
  • Outside your control. A Plan B trigger: the pre-agreed point where the goal re-scopes.

  Deciding on a calm day is easier than deciding in the moment. When the obstacle shows up, your answer is already written down.

• Annual goals · one headline outcome per focus area, measured

  One headline outcome per focus area, for this year. It turns the Summit Goal into something you can finish in twelve months, and it stops you working on ten things at once.

  • Targets. Three to five measurable signals per goal, each with a date.
  • Milestones. Dated waypoints, about three per quarter.
  • Traffic Light. Green, amber or red at each review, so slippage shows up early.

  A good target is one you would recognise if you hit it. Published twelve essays beats wrote more. If you cannot measure a goal, reword it until you can.

• Goal cascade · year to day, each level inherits its focus

  Six levels, one repeating loop. Summit Goal, year, quarter, month, week, day. Each level takes its direction from the level above, so the work you do today traces back to the peak.

  • Quarter. Two steps: choose the milestones to work on now, then give each month its focus.
  • Month and week. A short focus list, then your top three priorities.
  • Day. Three priorities pulled from the week, and a two-minute reflection.

  Every level closes with a review, including the small daily one. When today feels disconnected, walk back up the levels to find where the connection broke.

• Habit grid · a streak tracker with a lazy-day fallback

  A calendar of squares, one per day. Green means you did the full habit, amber means you did the small version, empty means the day passed. Green and amber both keep a streak alive; an empty day resets the counter.

  • Write the lazy-day version early. Two minutes or less, decided on a good day.
  • Use the small version on hard days. Use it when a child is sick, a deadline runs late, or the day falls apart.
  • Come back the next day. A full done after a lazy one fires the comeback badge.

  Three lazy days in a row is a sign the full habit is too big, so you re-scope it.

Your data, your machine

Nothing leaves your browser.

Every word you write stays in your browser. No account, no server, no upload. We cannot read your data; there is no server side to this app at all.

Save a fresh .save file at the end of each big planning session. Two seconds, permanent record you control.

Ready when you are

You start with your values.

A short card game. Build a hand of five values, rank them, and write a one-line purpose statement. About 5 minutes.
