Short answer: clear mental clutter by capturing everything, sorting what is yours, parking decisions that are not ready, and choosing one visible next action.
Capture without organizing
Write every open loop for five minutes: tasks, worries, conversations, purchases, appointments, replies, decisions, and the tiny things your mind keeps tapping.
Sort by type
- Action: something to do.
- Decision: something to choose.
- Emotion: something to feel or process.
- Not mine: something to return or release.
Park what is not ready
A parked decision gets a review date. Without a review date, it keeps wandering around your mind pretending to be urgent.
Choose one action
Mental clutter clears through completion, delegation, deletion, or truth. Pick one.
