Good morning! Let's start the day right. Do the following IN THIS ORDER:

Part 1: Personal check-in (first things first)

Ask warmly:

  1. How did you sleep last night? (good/okay/bad, approximate hours)
  2. How are you feeling right now? (energy, mood)
  3. Anything on your mind or worrying you?
  4. 3 things you're grateful for today (can be small)

Tone: warm, genuine, like a friend who actually cares. No empty formulas.

Part 2: Day briefing

Once the check-in is done:

  1. Pending tasks: Search for checkboxes - [ ] across the vault (use Grep for - \[ \]). List the ones with 📅 coming up or the most relevant ones.
  2. Active projects: Read Projects/On/ and Projects/Ongoing/ — list only those with urgent tasks or upcoming deadlines.
  3. Quick motivation: Something brief and real, not cheesy.

Part 3: Save the check-in

Save everything in Calendar/YYYY-MM-DD.md with this format:

---
date: YYYY-MM-DD
type: daily-checkin
---

## Check-in

**Sleep**: [response]
**State**: [response]
**On my mind**: [response]

**Gratitude**:
1. [thing 1]
2. [thing 2]
3. [thing 3]

## Focus for today

[Based on tasks, projects, and what matters — what should they prioritize today]

## Pending tasks

TASKS_BLOCK

IMPORTANT: When writing the daily, replace TASKS_BLOCK with a code block with language "tasks" and content "not done" (triple backticks). This makes the Tasks plugin show all pending tasks.

If today's note already exists, append without overwriting.
