Intentionality: A short, intentional list is infinitely more powerful than a long, reactive one. Define success before you start.

Your brain can only hold 3-5 priorities at once. The Rule of 3 forces you to be ruthless. You are not listing everything you have to do; you are listing the 3 Most Valuable Things (MVTs). Everything else is a bonus. This ensures your best energy goes to your biggest levers.

Set Your 3: Before you check email tomorrow, open a blank note. Write "Today's Wins:" and list the 3 most important outcomes. Not "work on spreadsheet," but "FINISH Q4 budget draft." Do this before all other work.
