Purposedifferent
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.With a restless workday full of too many open items, the method creates radical simplicity. It directs attention to a short sequence instead of a broad, still-open field.It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed.
