These are not scripts
They're thinking tools. The difference: a script does the thinking for you. A thinking tool forces you to do it first — then uses AI to sharpen what you found, not to find it for you.
Fill in every bracket with real, specific context. Not polished summaries. Your actual words, your actual situation. The more honest the input, the sharper the output.
01 — Focus
Day's Priority
Cuts through task sprawl. Names the one outcome that matters.
I'm starting my day. I have the following active projects and obligations: [list 3–5 things]
My energy level this morning is [low / medium / high].
Help me identify the ONE thing that, if done before noon, would make today count — even if everything else falls apart. Then give me the single next action to start it.
Don't give me a full schedule. Give me a decision.

02 — Reset
Clear the Noise
Empties the mental backlog. Separates what you can act on from noise.
Before I start today, I want to clear my head.
Here's what's sitting in the back of my mind right now: [dump whatever's there — worries, unfinished things, things you're avoiding]
Help me:
1. Identify which of these I can act on today (and what the action is)
2. Identify which I need to let go of for now
3. Note anything that needs a conversation or follow-up — not today, but soon
Keep it short. I want to feel lighter after reading it.

03 — Physical
Training Intention
Prevents injury and burnout. Calibrates effort to what your body can handle today.
I'm training today. Here's what's on the plan: [e.g., strength session / long run / conditioning]
My body feels [note any soreness, fatigue, energy]. My head is [focused / scattered / tired / motivated].
Give me:
1. One mental frame to carry into this session
2. One thing to watch for technically or physically
3. One sentence I can say to myself if I want to quit halfway
Make it direct. I want something I can use.

Builder's Brief
Exposes the actual blocker. Identifies fake urgency.
I'm working on [project name] today.
The current state is: [describe where it actually is — not where it should be]
The blocker or decision in front of me is: [be specific]
What I want to be true by end of day: [define done]
Help me think through the blocker. Give me:
1. The most direct path to resolving it today
2. Any assumption I might be making that's worth questioning
3. What I should NOT spend time on today that feels urgent but isn't

05 — Truth
Morning Review
Compares intention to execution. Calls out avoidance.
It's [time]. I've been working for [X] hours.
Here's what I actually did: [list honestly]
Here's what I planned to do: [list what you intended]
Help me assess:
1. Did I do the thing that mattered, or did I do the easy things first?
2. What's the honest reason I avoided the important work?
3. The one adjustment that would make the rest of the day more productive?
Don't soften it. I need the honest read.
