The prompt

I’ve committed to more than fits in this week. Here is everything I’ve said yes to: . I have about for all of it. First, estimate the hours each item needs and show me the list so I can correct your guesses. Wait for my reply. Then add it up, show me how far over I am, and close the gap. Each item you change gets one verdict: cut, shrink to a smaller version, move to a named later week, or hand to someone. Be slowest to cut anything another person is counting on. Don’t solve it by suggesting I sleep less or work the weekend. End with the week that does fit, as a short list by day.
