Purposedifferent
The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed.For easily distracted solo work, the method sets clear time boundaries for concentrated work. It protects attention when large tasks would otherwise fall apart into small avoidance moves.It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.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.
