50 — Home (Sanctuary & Property)

Your environment shapes your behavior more than your intentions do.

---

What Lives Here

Everything about where you live — your property, your environment design, maintenance protocols, and the ongoing work of turning your home into a sanctuary.

• Property — address, ownership docs, mortgage/lease details
• Maintenance — recurring tasks, service contacts, appliance records
• Environment design — how your spaces are laid out and why
• Projects — renovations, improvements, upgrades in progress
• Rules of the home — how the household operates (especially important with family)
• Vendors & services — everyone who services your home

Zeus’s Note

Most people have home knowledge scattered between their brain, their partner’s brain, random emails, and sticky notes. The first time a contractor asked me when we last serviced the HVAC and I couldn’t answer — that was embarrassing enough for me to build this folder.

My maintenance/maintenance-schedule.md is a 12-month calendar: January (check fire alarms), April (service A/C), October (gutters), etc. It took 2 hours to build and has saved me significant money from catching things early.

I also document my environment/space-design.md — why my desk faces the window, how the kitchen is organized. Sounds obsessive. But when I hire someone to help organize or move things around, they have context. And my AI can help me think through space optimization.

3. Create a simple annual maintenance calendar
4. List any active home projects with their status
