Practices

A practice is a small daily action that comes with your Theme — usually 2 to 5 minutes. It’s how an idea moves from something you read into something you live.

Note

Practices are part of The Academy.

Two types

Type	What you do
Reflect	Sit with an idea and internalize it — notice, remember, consider.
Act	Try the idea in real life — a small experiment out in your day.

Each of your chosen practice days brings one practice, drawn from the highlights behind your Theme.

Not homework

A practice is never an assignment. It doesn’t break if you skip it, and it should never feel like an obligation. Some days you’ll do it, some days you won’t — both are fine. Becoming adapts to your life, not the other way around.

You can:

• Mark as done when you’ve done it.
• Later when now isn’t the moment — the practice steps aside on Home and comes back on its own a few hours later, still the same day, with one quiet reminder. Bring it back returns it sooner.
• Skip today when today isn’t the day.

Did one and forgot to mark it? Open the Theme, pick that day on its timeline, and Mark as done — it counts on the day you did it. This works while the Theme is active; a finished Theme’s timeline stays as it was.

Reflections

Reflect practices include an optional reflection — a place to jot down what came up for you. Anything you write is saved with that practice, so you can look back on it later and see how your thinking has moved.

Writing a reflection is always optional. A blank day is still a fine day.
