4 steps

- Mark "Spend 20 focused minutes today" as done

Today  Step 1

Spend 20 focused minutes today

Phone in another room. The block is more important than the topic.

- Mark "Build a daily 20-min habit" as done

This week  Step 2

Build a daily 20-min habit

Pair it with an existing routine — morning coffee, after dinner. Same time wins.

- Mark "Finish one substantial piece of work" as done

This month  Step 3

Finish one substantial piece of work

A book, a course, a project. Pick something with a clear end state.

- Mark "Find a community or partner" as done

3 months  Step 4

Find a community or partner

Discord, subreddit, study group. Discussion deepens understanding faster than reading alone.

What are you noticing? What worked, what didn't, what to try next…
