FICTIONAL WORKED EXAMPLE
What a useful adjustment looks like
Fictional example: Alex is making a recipe index. Adding another category feels productive, but the weekly review reveals that searching still fails. The next session focuses on finding one recipe end to end. Use your own material or material you have permission to use.
Make this plan fit your day
Before starting, choose a real place and cue for the first action. Edit the rules to match what you can observe. Keep the date range explicit: the chosen start day is day 1, and day 90 is start + 89. If a commitment changes later, archive the plan and start another instead of silently rewriting its history.
Take it into a weekly review
Use one question above, read the saved notes, and write one next step. At a chapter boundary, inspect your evidence before marking a milestone complete. Export the plan JSON to keep milestones alongside check-ins, notes and reviews; a rules-only share file deliberately leaves those private fields out.
