The Drill

Take five minutes. No phone, no screen, no interruption.

Ask yourself one question: What am I carrying right now that I haven’t named?

Not your task list. Not your calendar. The things that sit underneath — the conversation you haven’t had, the decision you’ve been circling, the commitment that feels heavier than it should.

Write them down. Don’t sort them yet. Don’t judge them. Just name them.

## What You're Looking For The invisible backlog is invisible because it's unnamed. The moment you write something down, it stops being a weight and becomes a fact. Facts can be worked with. Weights just accumulate. You're not solving anything today. You're seeing clearly for the first time. That is the work of Week 1. ## The Pattern Unnameable → Named → Workable ## What to Notice Did anything surprise you? Did something appear that you didn't expect to be carrying? That surprise is information.
