Step 1: Go through the pre-filled list together. Add anything that's missing. Our starter list has 47 common tasks.
Step 2: For each task, one person claims full ownership. Full ownership means you notice it, plan it, and do it. No reminders needed.
Step 3: Accept imperfection. Your partner does things differently. That's fine. The cost of correcting them is they stop doing it.
Step 4: Check in monthly. "How's the split feeling? Anything need to move?"
