Concept Months
Each month within a season, you choose one concept to live by. A concept is a philosophy with a 4-week progressive habit plan, daily prompts, and a badge unlock condition.
How it works
- At the start of each month, open the Concepts page
- Pick one concept from the current season type (Nord or Jari)
- Each concept runs for 4 weeks with increasing depth
- Complete the month's conditions → earn the concept badge
- After earning all 6 concept badges → the Master badge is awarded automatically
Structure of a concept
Every concept has:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Symbol | A rune (Nord) or kanji (Jari) representing the concept |
| Philosophy | The core idea in one sentence |
| Core rules | 3–5 pinned rules shown daily on the dashboard |
| 4-week progression | Each week has a title, goal, daily prompt, and habit checklist |
| Badge condition | What you must achieve to earn the badge |
The hierarchy
Concepts within each season follow a specific order. The 6th concept (Drengr for Nord, Sakigake for Jari) is locked until you have completed all 5 preceding concepts.
| # | Nord | Jari |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Friluftsliv ᚠ | Kaizen 改 |
| 2 | Sisu ᛊ | Ikigai 生 |
| 3 | Lagom ᛚ | Wabi-sabi 侘 |
| 4 | Dugnad ᛗ | Shoshin 初 |
| 5 | Holmgang ᚺ | Mushin 無 |
| 6 (locked) | Drengr ᛏ | Sakigake 魁 |
| Master | Drengr Master ᛟ | Bushido Master 武 |
Abandoning a concept
If you start a concept month and change your mind, you can abandon it from the Concepts page. Abandoning frees the current month slot so you can start a different concept. An abandoned month does not count toward the Master badge.
Progress tracking
The Concepts page shows your progress:
- X of 5 completed for each season type
- Completed concepts show a "done" pill
- Locked 6th concept shows remaining count needed to unlock
