Week 1: Find the time that really exists

Your task this week

Record two ordinary days and identify one genuinely usable opening.

Work through the decision

1. Write down the obligation before and after the opening, including travel, changing and setup.
2. Choose a familiar activity that is suitable for your current ability. Set your own manageable appointment; the course does not assign a dose.
3. Record what actually happened, including a missed or changed plan. Leave days you did not observe unrecorded.

A realistic example

Editorial example: Alex labels lunch as a 30-minute break. Eating and returning to work occupy 20 minutes. The usable opening is closer to ten, so the first decision is whether a short familiar walk fits. Calling the whole break exercise would make the plan look complete while hiding the conflict.

Review before moving on

Which opening survived a normal day? What time did setup consume? Choose one repeatable opportunity rather than filling seven days at once.
