Getting your life dialed in is less about perfection and more about systems that run even on your worst day. Use this as a field manual. For each avenue you get three things: what “together” looks like, how to build it fast, and how to keep it that way.

1) Body basics

Together looks like: consistent sleep, simple meals that hit protein needs, daily movement, water, sunlight.
Build it fast: pick a fixed sleep window, prep one default breakfast and one default dinner, walk after meals, keep a full bottle at your desk.
Keep it: track three numbers each day: sleep hours, steps or minutes moved, protein grams.

2) Mind and mood

Together looks like: steady baseline, fewer spirals, clear self-talk.
Build it fast: two-minute breathing on wake, one page of brain-dump journaling, name the feeling and the need when stressed.
Keep it: weekly mood review with one tweak to sleep, caffeine, or workload.

3) Time and priorities

Together looks like: one calendar, one task list, days shaped by your top three.
Build it fast: consolidate to a single calendar, capture everything in one list, choose Today’s Top 3 each morning.
Keep it: a 30-minute weekly review to prune, plan, and block time.

4) Money

Together looks like: bills auto-paid, small surplus each month, emergencies covered.
Build it fast: list fixed expenses, automate them, set automatic transfers for savings and debt, name a target emergency fund.
Keep it: a 15-minute money Monday to reconcile accounts and adjust.

5) Work output

Together looks like: visible progress on the few things that matter.
Build it fast: define three outcomes for this quarter, break each into weekly deliverables, protect two daily 60-minute deep work blocks.
Keep it: Friday scoreboard that records shipped items and learned lessons.

6) Skills and learning

Together looks like: one skill at a time with a plan to practice.
Build it fast: pick one skill for 12 weeks, gather one book, one course, five reps per week.
Keep it: short demos or write-ups to lock in what you learned.

7) Relationships

Together looks like: a small circle you invest in and reliable rhythms of contact.
Build it fast: make a top 10 people list, set monthly pings, schedule two standing check-ins.
Keep it: every week send one thank you, one favor, one invitation.

8) Home base

Together looks like: tidy enough to recover in 10 minutes.
Build it fast: create a nightly 10-minute reset, define a drop zone for keys and wallet, stock a two-week supply of staples you actually use.
Keep it: one room focus each week for repairs and restock.

9) Digital life

Together looks like: secure accounts, sane inbox, automatic backups.
Build it fast: install a password manager, turn on 2FA, set device backups, archive everything older than 30 days to reach inbox zero today.
Keep it: weekly 10-minute inbox triage and monthly photo and file backup check.

10) Documents and legal

Together looks like: essential papers in one place, accessible by a trusted person.
Build it fast: scan ID, insurance, tax returns, medical cards, and store in an encrypted folder. List beneficiaries. If needed, draft a simple will and powers of attorney.
Keep it: annual review each tax season.

11) Health care

Together looks like: preventative cadence, clear records, known numbers.
Build it fast: book a primary care visit if overdue, schedule dental and vision, track vaccinations and any meds.
Keep it: add next appointments to the calendar at checkout.

12) Safety and resilience

Together looks like: plans for the most likely problems.
Build it fast: create an emergency contact card, assemble a basic first-aid kit and go bag, set smoke and CO alarms, define a family check-in plan.
Keep it: test alarms and update the bag every six months.

13) Transportation

Together looks like: reliable vehicle or transit plan and maintenance schedule.
Build it fast: schedule oil and tire checks, stock a trunk kit with booster cables and warm layers, save roadside assistance numbers.
Keep it: log mileage and next service date after every fill-up.

14) Reputation and presence

Together looks like: a simple, accurate public profile.
Build it fast: update your bio, headshot, and top work sample. Clean up old posts that do not represent you.
Keep it: quarterly pass to refresh and add new wins.

15) Meaning and play

Together looks like: regular activities that energize you.
Build it fast: list five things that make you feel alive, schedule two this week.
Keep it: a standing date with yourself or others for one of them.


The 7-day setup sprint

Day 1: calendar consolidation, pick Today’s Top 3 template, schedule weekly review.
Day 2: password manager, 2FA, device backup, inbox archive.
Day 3: bills automation, savings transfer, list debts and due dates.
Day 4: food and movement defaults, fix sleep window, water bottle at desk.
Day 5: scan and vault essential documents, share access with a trusted person.
Day 6: home reset routine, stock staples, create drop zone.
Day 7: emergency contacts, first-aid and go bag, relationship top 10 list with pings.

Monthly tune-up template

Review money, health appointments, backups, and your quarterly outcomes. Prune tasks, add next steps, and plan one fun thing. Update any supplies you used.

One-page checklist you can copy

  • Sleep window fixed and protected
  • Default breakfast and dinner ready
  • Daily movement and water tracked
  • One calendar, one task list, weekly review booked
  • Bills auto-paid, savings automated, emergency fund target set
  • Quarterly outcomes defined, deep work blocks on the calendar
  • One skill in focus with weekly practice

How to keep momentum when life gets messy

Reduce to minimums for a week. Protect sleep, hit your top three tasks only, and do the 10-minute home reset. When ready, reopen the weekly review and rebuild one block at a time.

A simple rule to run it all

One place for each thing, one rhythm for each place. Put everything important somewhere you trust, and meet it on a schedule. That is how you keep your stuff together.
