The 5-Minute Review Protocol: Three Questions to End Your Day Strategically
The goal is to close the loop on today and set the stage for a high-impact tomorrow.
Question 1: What is the ONE thing I completed today that moved my core goal forward?
This is your Proof of Progress check. It's the most important question for Mindset Resilience.
The Strategic Move: Identify the single highest-leverage task you completed. Write it down. If you can't name one, you know exactly where your Energy Leak was today.
The Strategic Win: This prevents the "I didn't get anything done" spiral. It forces you to acknowledge your win, no matter how small, and ends your day on a note of accomplishment, not anxiety.
Question 2: What is the ONE thing I need to do first thing tomorrow?
This is your Sacred Block setup. It eliminates decision fatigue for the morning.
The Strategic Move: Identify the single most important, high-leverage task for tomorrow. Write it on a sticky note and place it on your keyboard. This is the task that will fill your Sacred Block.
The Strategic Win: You have just automated your morning focus. You wake up knowing exactly where to apply your peak Energy Optimization without wasting a single minute on planning or scrolling.
Question 3: What is the ONE thing I can delete, delegate, or defer?
This is your final Strategic Simplification check. It's your last chance to eliminate tomorrow's chaos.
The Strategic Move: Look at your to-do list for tomorrow. Is there a task that can be deleted (it's not a Goal Alignment priority), delegated (it's a low-leverage task for your VA), or deferred (it's not a 90-day priority)?
The Strategic Win: You are proactively plugging tomorrow's potential Energy Leaks. You are ensuring that your tomorrow is cleaner, simpler, and more focused than your today.
