Summarise the Practical Implications of a Major Life Change
Major life changes produce practical consequences across multiple domains simultaneously. The emotional adjustment takes time. The practical implications have deadlines. This maps the categories where the change has the most significant practical impact, identifies what needs to happen before and after, and produces a ninety-day priority list ordered by urgency.
