Senses. What do you hear, see, feel right now?
Body. Where is there tension? Where is there ease?
Mind. What thought keeps coming back? Let it pass like a cloud.
Connection. Who matters today? One name.
Every worthwhile thing has a stretch in the middle where it stops being fun and isn't yet rewarding. Most people quit there. That's exactly why getting through it is worth so much.
You don't have to push through all of it today. You only have to take the smallest next step.
Stuck because it has to be perfect? That's perfection paralysis. If you can't start, the step is too big. Shrink it until starting is easy.
A cockpit for your day. You look at it, notice where you are, make one small adjustment, and take the next step. That's the whole idea: Awareness. Adjustment. Action.
Nothing here is a grade. Readings are guidance. Missing a day is fine. Your mission stays put until you change it.
Windshield shows or hides the live sky above the panel. Sound turns all sounds on or off (off for meetings). Engine hum is a quiet cabin tone while airborne. It is off by default and independent of Sound: you can have the hum with no chimes, or chimes with no hum. Haptics adds a light vibration on phones that allow it (iPhones don't, in a browser). With the windshield on, you also get Cabin light (flip it on, pick a color), Land / Take Off (the throttle), Afterburner and Buzz the Tower. The FLIGHT panel also holds Music (opens Flight Music), Boarding pass (a shareable card of today), Mayday (the bad-day screen) and Fly with me (a wingman link). Each is explained below.
Top left, AWARENESS · ADJUSTMENT · ACTION is tappable: it opens "Why this exists," the first page of the preflight. Top right is the clock and the time of your last recalibration. Below the windshield: your call sign, your nose art (one star per mission flown to the end), days flown and pilot since (which becomes "A year in the air" at 365). Your name in the greeting is underlined: tap it to change it.
Top right. The last recalibration time stamps itself whenever you close or leave the page, and when you finish Recalibrate.
The three main buttons. Flight Plan is your longer-term blueprint. Recalibrate is for when you're off course. Additional Instruments holds everything else.
The goal everything below leads to. One line. It can stand for weeks or months.
Your energy, shown as a fuel gauge. On Auto it starts full in the morning and drains slowly through the day and with effort. It refills with Refuel (after rest, food or a walk), Grace and Well done (for you to give yourself, as often as you need), a breathing session, or a logged win. Good stress, like a workout or a hard thing done well, counts as refueling too. Tap Switch to Manual to set it yourself.
On Auto, it follows how many actions you've written: one is locked in, two or three is okay, four or more is scattered. Switch to Manual when your real focus doesn't match the reading.
The one thing that, if you only did it, would make the day work. You can add a second or third, but each one turns some of the green bars amber. That's signal turning into noise. The bars never stop you; they just tell the truth. Tap What's this? for the background.
Tap IGN beside an action to write the first small step, the kind you don't need to fear. Check it off, then add the next if you like.
Below the gauges, in one frame, are the four panels that do the quiet work: what you are grateful for today, your support and resources for this flight, the resistance you expect, and what you are saying "No" to. They are always on the panel; they do not fold away.
Things I am grateful for today: three, ideally fresh. They roll into your log each day; no pressure if you skip one. Support and resources for this flight: people, tools, even coffee. Expected resistance / threats / turbulence: name what might push back; naming it shrinks it. What are you saying "No" to?: the noise you're declining, and the things you'd enjoy but are setting aside to stay focused.
Altitude climbs as you check off your actions: cruising at first, above the clouds when they're all done. Waypoints are your actions. The bottom line shows the season, time of day and weather. The sky follows your clock and calendar. In the full version, weather will follow your real local weather, with your permission and nothing stored.
Land asks Runway or Carrier, then brings you down; the button becomes Take Off. Both only change the view, for a visual rest. A carrier landing ends with a trap: the arresting wire catches you. Afterburner is the one burst of speed, for a hard step. Buzz the Tower is a low pass for fun.
Earned: Mission accomplished. When your mission is truly done, tap it under the mission line (twice, to confirm). The plane climbs out of the atmosphere into space, then glides home, and the mission moves to your Wins.
Look out for: a rainbow when your actions are done (a double with two bonus wins), a moonbow at night, shooting stars, a soft aurora if you tap the moon, and something special between midnight and 1 a.m.
Press it when you feel off course. It asks one question, What's pulling you off course?, and each answer does one thing and points you to the instrument that helps.
Too many things: keeps your main action and moves the rest to Lists. Tired or drained: tops up Fuel and suggests a two-minute break, then Breathe. Don't know where to start: opens the first-step box under your main action. Distracted: adds what's pulling at you to your "No" list and points to the Focus tool. Press Done, I'm back on course to close.
Flight Plan · the Blueprint: one goal worked through five steps (goal, problems, diagnosis, blueprint, doing), reviewed on a rhythm. Lists: as many lists as you like; give each item a letter (A must, B should, C nice, D someday) and a number, and it sorts itself. Toolkit: fourteen tools for adjusting your state, sorted by what you need, each with the next suggested action; "Did that help?" under each one teaches the Toolkit which tools are yours. Flight Music: songs about flight and lift for every stage, both Top Gun films, and Rocket Man with the songs that rode with it; every link opens YouTube, and the + adds the song to your own playlist in the Toolkit's "Change the soundtrack" tool. Wins: everything that went right; send any win to Tree of Wins. Breathe: seven breathing patterns, then a two-minute check-in. The Dip: why hard is normal, and your smallest next step. Hangar: your name or call sign, sound, live weather, real sunrise and sunset, the daily nudge, your birthday, backup, the preflight replay, New mission and Erase. Flight Manual: this page. Sources and further reading: every book behind the dashboard, with a line on what it inspired and where to find it (those are affiliate links, disclosed on that page).
Music changes your state faster than almost anything else, so the dashboard treats it as an instrument. There are two parts. Flight Music (the purple Music button, or the tile in Additional Instruments) is the catalogue: suggestions grouped by stage (Takeoff, Climb, Cruise, Turbulence, Landing, Mission accomplished) plus the Top Gun and Def Leppard sections. Nothing is hosted here; ▶ YouTube opens a search for the official upload in a new tab. Tap + and the song goes into your playlist for that stage; the row turns green with a ✓ so you can see what you have already added, and tapping ✓ removes it again. Your playlist lives in the Toolkit under "Change the soundtrack," one list per stage, where you can also add your own songs by title and link (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, anything). Mayday's "Landing music" button opens one calm song directly. Why it works: Daniel Levitin, This Is Your Brain on Music (2006) (to verify).
Under the mission is one line: Intention · why this matters, and how I'll fly it. It is the mission statement for the flight. The mission is where you are going and the actions are what you will do; the intention is the purpose behind it and the quality you bring to it, and the same action taken with patience or with fear is a different flight. It belongs to the mission, so it stays until you start a new one. While airborne it sits in the HUD; Recalibrate asks whether it is still true in what you are doing right now; the landing summary names it; the boarding pass carries it. Two sources: Stephen R. Covey's personal mission statement and "begin with the end in mind" (The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, 1989), and Gary Zukav on intention shaping the consequence of an act (The Seat of the Soul, 1989) (to verify).
Your mission is the big goal, the thing all of this is for; it may take months. The actions under it are steps toward it, and today only needs the next step. When you name a mission and write one step, the dashboard takes off on its own. Start a new mission (under the greeting, and in the Hangar) wipes the panel for the next mission and keeps your name, Lists, Wins, settings and playlists; the finished mission goes in your record and adds a star of nose art. Erase everything (Hangar only) deletes everything on the device. Both ask you to confirm first.
Tap the octopus beside the engraved title for the story: three hearts, blue blood, arms that think for themselves, color change in a blink, no bones, regrowth. Every third tap it changes color to match the sky and tells you one more fact.
On every instrument, HOME (top left) returns to the Main Panel, and the row beside it jumps to any other instrument.
Everything stays in this browser, on this device. No account, nothing sent anywhere. Clearing your browser data clears the dashboard, so use Hangar → Copy my data now and then to keep a backup.
This is a tool for reflection and focus. It is not medical, mental health or professional advice. Breathing exercises: stop if you feel dizzy.
These are the authors, researchers and sources from which the ideas and concepts in this cockpit came, credited here with thanks. Items marked (to verify) are being checked against the original sources.
Every instrument starts from someone's idea, credited below, and adds a layer that is this dashboard's own. Five signature moves run through everything: the Cockpit Loop (every idea becomes an instrument with a reading, an adjustment and an action); the Proven Path (before solving it yourself, ask who already has); the Advisory Board (borrowed perspectives, historical, fictional, ideal and professional); Ignition (shrink any step until it's easy to start); and Signal to Noise (one thing, with a visible cost for every addition).
Every book here, with a line on what it inspired and where to find it: .
Fly with me makes a link that carries your name, mission and actions, and nothing else; a friend who opens it sees your mission as a wingman card and a small plane joins their formation on the windshield, lit when your link is from today. Talk to the tower copies today's panel into a check-in prompt for your own AI; this web app sends nothing. Sun (Hangar) asks for your location once, rounds it, and computes sunrise and sunset on the device, so the windshield's dawn and dusk happen at the real minute. Nudge is one local notification a day while the dashboard is open. Birthday is month and day only; the formation flies by that morning.
The first open runs a short preflight: each instrument lights in turn with one line on what it does, and the last step names your mission and one action. Then the dashboard takes off on its own. (Replay it from the Hangar.) Each checked action draws a contrail across the windshield. Each mission flown to the end adds a star of nose art beside your call sign. The Flight log on the Wins page is a seven-day debrief that only counts what went right.
Mayday is for the bad day. It turns everything off but one line and three doors: Breathe, The Dip, and a quiet song. It is not a crisis service; the screen says where to call. Boarding pass draws a card of today on your device (mission, counts, the sky) that you can save or share. Reserve, under the Fuel gauge, fills one pip for each day in a row you fly and turns gold at seven. Miss a day and it drops to half, never to empty. Streaks that reset to zero punish; this one forgives.

Recalibration Dashboard: Awareness. Adjustment. Action. By Robert DeV. Bunn. Prototype, October 2026.
Your entries (mission, actions, steps, lists, wins, gratitude, settings) are kept in your browser's local storage. We can't access or recover them. Back up regularly from Hangar.
Location (opt-in, at launch). If you turn on live weather, your device shares approximate coordinates with a weather service to fetch current conditions. We don't store your location. You can turn it off anytime.
Email (opt-in). If you sign up, your name and email are held by our email provider so we can send occasional updates, news about new features or versions, invitations to short surveys or feedback, and news about related projects by Robert DeV.

Music changes your state faster than almost anything else. Every song here is about flight, the sky, or lift, or it lifts you: nothing general. They are grouped by stage of flight, with two sections for the two Top Gun films and one that starts with Rocket Man. Tap ▶ YouTube to open the song on YouTube, or + to add it to your own playlist in the Toolkit.
Every link opens YouTube in a new tab. Nothing is hosted, copied or embedded here; the songs belong to their artists and labels. The suggestions are this dashboard's own. Not affiliated with Paramount Pictures, Def Leppard, or any artist or label named here.
The songs name-checked in Def Leppard's "Rocket" (Hysteria, 1987) follow the Wikipedia article on the song (to verify against the lyrics). Film song lists are from the published soundtrack albums and the films themselves (to verify).
These are the books from which the ideas and concepts in this cockpit came, credited with thanks. They were drawn from a working library of more than 3,400 Kindle and Audible titles gathered over many years, plus print books and library loans. The authors listed here inspired the dashboard; none of them was involved in making it, and none endorses it. Each line says what it inspired here. If something in the dashboard helps you, the book behind it will help more. The has the full citations, and the Breathe and Toolkit pages credit their sources on the spot.

Recalibration Dashboard: Awareness. Adjustment. Action. By Robert DeV. Bunn.
Want occasional updates? Leave your name and email. You may hear about new features or versions, if and when there are any, and get short surveys asking what you like and what you'd change. No promises about future releases. Never sold. Unsubscribe anytime.
You are at point A. Somewhere you want to be is point B. B can be anything: a book finished, a business open, a debt gone, a habit kept, a life rebuilt. This web app is the cockpit that flies you from A to B with as little wasted motion as possible.
Where it comes from. The best thinking on getting things done is scattered across a shelf of books: Ray Dalio's five-step blueprint (goal, problems, diagnosis, design, doing), Amabile and Kramer on why small daily progress is what keeps people going, Gawande on checklists, Siegel and McKeown on the breath. Those are four examples. The work of more than twenty authors and practitioners inspired this dashboard, and every one is credited on the Sources page. None of them was involved in making it; their ideas have been turned into plain, step-by-step instruments you can use in two minutes.
A note from the author. The inspiration for this cockpit, its instruments, its purpose and how it all works together comes from years of reading, listening and testing: a working library of more than 1,300 Kindle titles and 2,100 audiobooks, plus print books and library loans, not all of them read cover to cover.
Why a cockpit. Pilots don't fly by feel. They read the instruments on a rhythm and make small corrections early, before a small drift becomes a lost day. Here, one glance tells you where you are: your goal, the next step, your focus, your energy, what's in your way. When you're off course, one button, Recalibrate, asks one question and gives you the next step. Use it ten times a day, once a week, or once a quarter; it is built for all three.
What to expect. A sky that follows the real clock. A mission line for B. A few actions, which are the steps toward it. Gauges that mostly run themselves. And behind one button, Additional Instruments: a Flight Plan built on Dalio's blueprint, a Toolkit of fourteen tools, Lists, Breathe, The Dip, Flight Music, and more, each drawn from a named source, for the stretches of the journey where you need more than a glance. Nothing you type ever leaves your device. No account, no feed, no score. Awareness. Adjustment. Action.
The next six pages light up the instruments one at a time. Full sources are in the Flight Manual.
Nothing on the panel is due right now. The windshield is off, the gauges are off. There is only this screen and your breath.
If you're in danger or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 (U.S.) or your local emergency number. This web app is not a crisis service.
is part of Full Flight. Everything you use every day stays free, always. Full Flight adds the things that make the cockpit yours: the Flight Plan and Advisory Board, the Flight log, unlimited wingmen, carrier landings, the Mission accomplished flight, real sunrise and sunset, cabin light colors, the engine hum.
This link carries your name, your mission line and your actions (done or not), and nothing else. Send it to a friend. When they open it, your mission appears on their panel as a wingman card, and a small plane joins their formation. Send it again whenever you want them to see where you are. No server, no account: the data rides inside the link. If they have never used the dashboard, the link opens it for them: that is the invitation.
