Personalized Executive Strategy
The Visionary Protocol
Optimizing the high-ideation mind for sustainable execution.
The Core Challenge
Your profile combines high creative openness with low conscientiousness and anxiety. This creates a specific neurological conflict:
The Engine
Ferrari V12 (High Ideation): Your brain is wired for speed, pattern recognition, and limitless creative connection. It craves novelty and generates vision effortlessly.
The Brakes
Bicycle Brakes (Low Execution): Your internal "stopping" and "steering" mechanisms (for boring/routine tasks) are underpowered. You don't feel the "anxiety" that helps others stop and do admin work.
The 3-Part Exoskeleton
We stop trying to change the brain, and start building a system that fits it.
PHASE 1
The Reset
- Task Bankruptcy: Deleting the backlog. If it's older than 2 weeks, it's gone. Starting fresh today to kill overwhelm.
- Traffic Light System: Using physical visual signals (Red/Green signs) on the door to communicate "Deep Focus" to family without conflict.
PHASE 2
The Biology
- Dopamine Loading: 20 minutes of bright light + 30g protein immediately upon waking to fuel the frontal cortex.
- The 5-Minute Jumpstart: Using short bursts of intense exercise (jumping jacks) as a "drug" to clear brain fog instantly.
PHASE 3
The Exoskeleton
- Body Doubling: leveraging your high "Agreeableness" by working in the presence of others (Focusmate) to create social accountability.
- Idea Treasury: A capture notebook for creative thoughts so you don't chase rabbits during work hours.
New Rules of Engagement
| If I feel... | The Old Way | The New Way |
|---|---|---|
| "This is too hard or boring." | Switch to a new, fun idea. | Micro-Burst: Set timer for 5 mins. I only have to do it for 5 mins, then I have permission to quit. |
| "I have too much to do." | Freeze up / Doom scroll. | Eisenhower Matrix: Pick the Top 3 "Must-Do" items. Ignore the rest. |
| "I just had a great idea!" | Spend 2 hours researching it now. | Capture: Write it in the "Idea Treasury." Review it tonight, not now. |
