<aside> 💡 This is the Notion-template I have created to go along with my corresponding blogpost on my blog: kvn.li/life-design Read the post first, before using this. I have explained how it works in much more detail.

Step 1: List everything you want to do in life (20 minutes)

• Learn how to talk, write and read Japanese
• Travel to Japan

Step 2: Write down your perfect day 5 years from now

5 years from now, I want to be travel yearly to Japan and discover the country all while speaking to the people in their own language.

Step 3: Write down a more realistic day 1 year from now

1 year from now, I will know enough Japanese to watch some YouTube-videos with Japanese-subtitles enabled and read some simple mangas.

Step 4: Write down what you are doing right now with a score and how much time you pass

Daily Life

Step 5: Analyse the list and check what is out of balance

• Too many hours of YouTube compared to that low score
• High value for Japanese but not doing anything

Step 6: Find the overarching themes in your list and in Step 2

Fix backpain / go swimming / lose 5kg ⇒ physical health

Step 7: Create an action-plan

Action plan (duplicate this)

Step 8: Create a plan for the different daily habits

The logic is always Cue → Habit → Reward
