Getting started · one focused hour

The first Sunday.

Everything worth doing in the first sitting, in the order most people do it. One hour, one cup, and the heaviest things are off your mind.

Start your pouch
i.

Four steps,

by the second cup.

Step 01 · 10 minutes

Open the pouch

Two minutes to sign up, no card. Then the part that matters: write your recovery key on paper and put it where the passports live. Do this before anything else.

Step 02 · 20 minutes

Add what's heaviest

The mortgage, usually — rate, renewal date, broker, and the sentence of advice. Then the bank and the home insurance. Three records is a strong first Sunday.

Step 03 · 10 minutes

Name one trusted person

The person who'd need to step in. Choose what they can see now (maybe nothing), and seal a first envelope for some day. You can change every part of this later.

Step 04 · 5 minutes

Let the help notice renewals

There's no date to type in. Connect a bank feed or upload a statement, and the help notices the shape of a renewal — a mortgage payment, an insurance premium — and proposes a task when it's due. You confirm or dismiss; nothing runs on its own.

“You don’t have to finish. A pouch with three records and one envelope already does the job a drawer never could. The rest is other Sundays.”
— The only rule of the first Sunday
iii.

It’s Sunday
somewhere.

Put the kettle on and open the pouch. The mortgage folder knows where it is.
