The end of a week invites loose ends to gather. Instead of building a new plan, finish a few small things. Return the book. Archive the folder. Rename the file so that future you knows what it contains. Each finish releases a little attention back into circulation.

This is not avoidance. It is maintenance. Systems that run well are maintained regularly. When the small pieces are in their places, the large pieces fit without force. You spend more energy building and less on navigation.

Choose three tasks that can each be done in under ten minutes. Do them without switching contexts. Mark them off with a full line. Notice the surface of your day grow smoother by degrees.

Then step back. Ask what one larger move would benefit most from this clearer field. Point yourself toward it with a single sentence. Tomorrow will be ready for it when you arrive.
