1. Plan at the Right Altitude
- Quarterly themes → weekly commitments → daily blocks.
- Timebox everything: work expands to fill the space you give it.
- Default no: protect two deep-work blocks a day.
How to act
- Keep a rolling list of “might do” — move only three items into the week.
- Schedule breaks; fatigue fakes urgency.
- Use consistent start times for routines you want to keep.
Tip: Calendar is a to-do list with a clock. If it matters, block time.
2. Review, Learn, Repeat
- Friday retros: what moved, what stalled, what to change.
- Energy audit: track when you do your best work and guard it.
- Tiny experiments: change one thing per week; keep what sticks.
