Welcome to Rituals
Rituals conducts your Rise, task-close and Shutdown. Tasks live in Super Productivity; the record lives in your Obsidian daily note. Rituals stores nothing else.

Rise
Open the day.
Rise
Carried in from yesterday
Things you left open at Shutdown — tap one to make it today's one thing.
Rise · 2/4
What's already in your head?
The noise, the to-dos, the worries. Get it out.
Rise · 3/4
What is today's one thing?
The one thing that makes today count. If it helps, name when — “when I sit down at 9, I'll…”.
Rise · 4/4
What are you looking forward to?
Rise · Now open it.
Give it one minute of quiet before you open anything. The one thing is already named — let it be the first thing you do.
Rise
That's the day begun.
Give it one minute of quiet before you open anything. The one thing is already named — let it be the first thing you do.
Shutdown
Close the day properly.
Work's done. A few words to hand it back before it follows you home.
Shutdown · 1/2
What's still open?
The loops running in the back of your mind. Write them as thoughts — not tasks. You are not planning tomorrow; you are releasing today. Anything you truly must not forget is carried to tomorrow's Rise.
Shutdown · 2/2
What went right?
One or two real things — not achievements, moments. Skim it if today was rough; this is a light close, not an obligation.
Shutdown · Now shut it.
How does the day feel? — optional
1 = rough, 5 = great. It's a gentle note to yourself, not a score — it helps you spot trends over time.
When work turns up in your head at nine o'clock, don't chase it down. You said the words, which means it's handled — let that be the whole answer.
Shutdown
That's the day.
Go for a walk if you've got twenty minutes in you. It's the closest thing to a commute you've got.
