Original practice · Optional exercise · A place for unfinished work

Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.

  1. Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A project is paused because a shared tool is unavailable.
  2. Note an alternative task that can proceed without that tool.
  3. Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
  4. Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.
