How a reset day goes.

Set aside twenty minutes, or split it: the first two parts in the morning, the last one tonight. Your answers wait in this browser in between. Write in your own words, as messy as you like. Nobody else reads it.

  1. Look at where you are. Not the big dramas: the dull, everyday things you stopped noticing.
  2. Picture two Tuesdays. One five years from now if nothing changes, one three years from now if it goes your way. Ordinary days, not holidays.
  3. Make it small. One line for each Tuesday, one thing for the year, one project for this month, two or three things for tomorrow.
  4. Carry it through the day. Optional: three small questions in your calendar at 11:00, 15:15 and 21:00, to notice what you’re doing while you do it.

The twelve questions.

Here they are, so you can see what’s coming, or do it on paper. Use the tool above to keep your answers on one page.

Where you are: no fixing yet. just look.

  1. What have you learned to put up with? (not the big stuff. the dull, everyday kind you stopped noticing.)
  2. What do you keep complaining about, but never change? (up to three. the ones your friends could say for you.)
  3. If someone only watched what you do (not what you say), what would they think you want? (be kind, be honest. both at once is allowed.)

Two tuesdays: one ordinary day, two ways it could go.

  1. Five years from now, nothing changed. walk through an ordinary tuesday. (where you wake up, what fills the hours, how you feel at 10pm.)
  2. Three years from now, it went your way. same tuesday. (not what's realistic. what you actually want.)
  3. What's the real reason it hasn't changed yet? (the honest one, not the reasonable one. nobody else reads this.)

What's next: small enough to start tomorrow.

  1. In one line: the life you won't settle for. (your first tuesday, squeezed into a sentence.)
  2. In one line: the life you're building. (your second tuesday. it can change later.)
  3. Finish it: i'm the kind of person who… (who'd live that second tuesday without forcing it.)
  4. A year from now, what one thing tells you it worked?
  5. This month's boss: the one project that keeps that year possible. (one. the rest can wait.)
  6. Tomorrow: two or three small things that person would just do. (one per line. small enough to finish.)

Why it works.

Most resets fail the same way: a big list in January, gone by February. This one asks for less. One line for the life you won’t settle for, one for the life you’re building, one project for the month, three things for tomorrow. Small enough to start, clear enough to say no to the rest.

Then the boring part, which is the part that works: three things a day, three projects at a time, and new ideas wait a week. That’s the rule of three. If you keep starting new things instead, read shiny object syndrome, explained kindly.

Quick answers

Can you really fix your life in one day?

No. But one honest day can point you somewhere, and that's the part most people skip. The fixing is the boring bit after: one project for the month, three small things a day, and saying no to the rest.

What happens to what I write?

It stays in this browser (local storage), so you can take a break and come back tonight. Nothing is sent to us. Even the card is drawn right here on your device. “Forget my answers” wipes it all.

Does an AI read my answers?

No. Nuffo asks; you answer. The point is to think it through yourself, so no AI reads, sorts or rewrites a word of it.

Why Tuesdays?

Because nobody's life happens on a holiday. An ordinary Tuesday is where the years actually go: what you wake up to, what fills the hours, how you feel at 10pm.

How often should I do it?

Once a season is plenty. Things change; the second Tuesday can too. In Nuffo, the Sunday look-back offers a new one at the start of each season, and you can switch that off.

What questions should I ask myself to reset my life?

Start with what you've learned to put up with, then picture an ordinary day five years out if nothing changes, and three years out if it goes your way. The gap between those two Tuesdays tells you what to do this month. All twelve questions are listed on this page.

Is there a printable version?

Yes: the reset day worksheet is a free PDF with the same twelve questions and room to write, at nuffo.app/printable/reset-day.

What does Nuffo do with it?

Keeps the short lines, makes this month's project one of your three projects (big new ones wait a week first), and puts tomorrow's things in later. One tap makes them tomorrow's three. Once a month it asks if it's still moving you the right way.

A little focus. A lot more life.

Nuffo keeps your line, keeps you to three things a day and three projects, and asks once a month if it still fits. Free to start.
