Financial & Lifestyle Reset · 3 June 2026

Your private mid-year check-in. Nothing you type is saved, stored, or sent — not to us, not to anyone. It lives only on this device, only for you. Close the tab and it's gone.

What changed

The first half of 2026 in one word

What life added

New things that arrived — chosen or not — that changed the picture.

Describe what changed

What disrupted

Things that interrupted or derailed — expected or not.

Describe what disrupted

What did you do well financially in the first half of the year? (Name at least one thing.)

Lifestyle creep check

Lifestyle creep: spending rises silently as income grows — small upgrades that become permanent. It often feels like the raise never happened.

Has your spending risen with your income in the last 12 months?

If yes — what quietly upgraded that you did not consciously choose?What is the gap between your current financial picture and where you want to be?

Where I am

The lifestyle–finance interplay

Where do you sit right now? Move the sliders to plot your position. This is diagnostic — not a judgement.

Lifestyle cost — how much of your income goes on your current life?

Goal progress — how consistently are your habits funding your goals?

The balance is working — protect it through transitions

Your inner conditions

You cannot create financial clarity if your mind is overloaded and your energy is drained.
— Paola Elena Brignoli

Mental bandwidth for financial decisions this year (1 = depleted · 5 = full)

The feeling that most often came up when you thought about your finances

The story you have been telling yourself about money

Are your goals still the same — or has your life changed enough that you need a new plan?What is the avoidance costing you — financially and energetically?

What's next

Page 2 · Use during the session

The decision I am sitting on

Bring this to your circle on Wednesday. This is the question that gets answered — or at least clarified — tonight.

In one sentence — the financial or lifestyle decision I have been circling around

What information do I need to make it?

What is stopping me from deciding?

Does this decision depend on which country you stay in?

The 1% shift

Lasting change comes from small, consistent habits — not overhauls. What is the one thing that, done weekly, would make the biggest difference?

The smallest possible habit I could start this week (under 10 minutes)

From: I am someone who...

To: I am someone who...

One belief about money I am ready to leave behind

My commitment — first draft

The one thing I am doing differently in the second half of 2026, starting this weekStarting on

First draft — you will refine and commit to this in the room on Wednesday evening.
