What you should have after 14 days
What this Journey includes
Name the smallest useful result
Define what one real user can see, use, or review.
Freeze the current scope
Move every nonessential idea to a later list.
Complete one visible slice
Finish the smallest end-to-end path before polishing.
Ship or test once
Release, send, publish, or show the bounded result.
Missing a step is treated as information, not failure.
Northbound checks whether the step was too large, badly timed, blocked by a constraint, or no longer pointed at the right result. Then your Wayfinder offers one smaller, better-timed, or more honest next step.
Default adjustment: check scope and session size then shrink.
Privacy and Companion
Preview of the first step
Write the one user-visible result that would make the project testable.
Questions people usually ask
What counts as shipped?
A real person can access, review, or use the bounded result. Internal polishing alone does not count.
What happens to ideas outside the scope?
They are preserved in a later list but cannot silently enter the active Journey.
Can I change the result?
Yes, but the Journey explicitly records whether you shrank, replaced, paused, or stopped the original result.
How setup works
Setup keeps this template selected, asks only the questions needed to shape the plan, and shows the plan before activation.
