summary
Claims three actionable practices and shows them working: when faced with three immaculate mocks and no decision, declaring constraints forces a choice — Option C wins and the project gets back on track; practical accommodations include remote work, noise‑cancelling headphones, darker offices, turning cameras off and text‑first meetings; a simple morning ritual (daily coffee walk) reduces cognitive load and sticks new behaviors. Summarized as name the stakes, make accommodations, keep a routine.
