A system with user interface controls, a build component, a runtime component, and a workflow engine enables a user to specify an event definition, create an event instance based on the event definition, and process the event instance. The event definition may include a list of tasks corresponding to a life or work event, a specification of resources associated with each task, and a task order. The user may deselect optional tasks, specify participants who are to collaborate in the event, and otherwise personalize the event instance. The user processes the event instance by selecting tasks in accordance with the task order. The system provides access to the resources associated with each task, and allows the user to mark tasks as completed, and to store and monitor the progress of the event instance. Multiple event instances that are created from the same event definition can be processed independently.
