Purposedifferent
After missions or project phases with unclear outcomes, the method makes visible what actually happened and what can be learned from it. It separates course, effect, and causes so experience turns into solid improvement.The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed.With many open commitments and ideas in daily life, a reliable external storage system emerges. The method relieves the mind so priority and context don't have to compete in memory.It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.
