# reset, reclaim, optimize

These stages describe the kind of change a part of life needs. They do not assign a permanent rank. You may be resetting one area, reclaiming another, and optimizing a third.

Each practice has one journey entry point: where introducing it is usually most useful. A practice can remain valuable long after that point.

## reset

Use reset when technology interrupts attention, fills empty moments, or operates mainly through defaults.
