Week 1 - Assignments

From Deepseek: 

Here’s your **action list for the week (by 19 April)**, tailored to your goals and designed to be achievable without overwhelm. I’ve prioritized a mix of quick wins, foundational steps, and momentum-builders: 

---

### **Career & Job Objectives (3 Actions)** 

1. **Draft 1 FAQ Outline** 

   - Spend 30 mins outlining *one* of your 3 legal topic FAQs (structure: "Top 5 Questions + Clear Answers"). 

2. **Block "Deep Work" Time** 

   - Schedule 2 x 90-minute slots in your calendar for FAQ/slide creation (protect this time from SimCity!). 

3. **Send a Visibility Email** 

   - Email *one* manager: *"I’m compiling FAQs on [Topic X]—would this align with team priorities?"* (Forces engagement.) 

---

### **Investing & Legacy (3 Actions)** 

4. **Reallocate 1 Position** 

   - Review *one* underperforming investment (ETF/bond) and decide: hold, sell, or rebalance. 

5. **Research Tariff-Proof Assets** 

   - Spend 20 mins reading about sectors less impacted by US tariffs (e.g., healthcare, local SG markets). 

6. **Document Intentions** 

   - Write 2 sentences for your kids: *"My investing philosophy is…"* (Start a legacy letter.) 

---

### **Decluttering (2 Actions)** 

7. **Attack One "Hotspot"** 

   - Clear *one* visible clutter zone (e.g., your desk, a shelf)—take a before/after photo. 

8. **Donate/Sell 1 Item** 

   - Choose *one* unused possession (book? gadget?) to list on Carousell or donate. 

 

---

### **Self-Hypnosis & Relaxation (2 Actions)** 

9. **Hypnosis Session** 

   - Use an app (e.g., **Hypnotica**) for 10 mins before bed *once* this week. Track: Did sleep improve? 

10. **Stoic Breathing** 

   - Practice 5 cycles of box breathing (4-4-4-4) when overthinking strikes.

### **Guitar Practice (2 Actions)** 

11. **Harmonics Drill** 

   - Practice natural harmonics (12th fret) for 10 mins *twice* this week. 

12. **Extended Chord Experiment** 

   - Learn *one* new voicing (e.g., Cmaj7) and play it over a triad progression.

### **Health & Energy (3 Actions)** 

13. **Park Connector Ride** 

   - Cycle 20km *once* (schedule it now—e.g., Sunday AM). 

14. **Shoulder Rehab** 

   - Do *one* physio exercise from your book (e.g., pendulum swings). 

15. **CPAP Adjustment**

### **Bonus (If Time/Energy Allows):** 

- **Poetry Line:** Write *one* line about your daughter’s law school journey. 

- **SimCity Rule:** Play *only after* completing 3 actions from this list. 

--- 

### **Why This Works:** 

- **INTJ-Friendly:** Structured, measurable, and systems-driven. 

- **Stoic Alignment:** Focus on *control* (your actions) vs. outcomes (markets, managers). 

- **Quick Wins:** Small steps build momentum (e.g., one FAQ outline → progress without pressure). 

 

**Accountability Check:** Reply by 19 April with your top 3 completed items! 🚀 

 

P.S. For decluttering, listen to your guitar playlist while sorting—makes it feel like a creative act. 🎸
