The Two-Line Restart

Leave a usable return point before stopping.

Productivity · Original writing

This is an original, small exercise. Try it on one real situation rather than reorganising everything at once.

Try the flow

  1. Write what you just finished in one sentence. Do not summarise the whole project.
  2. Write the next visible action in a second sentence: open the draft, compare two options, or ask one specific question.
  3. Put the note beside the current work, where you will actually look.
  4. When you return, check whether the action still fits before following it.
