Really good advice, and it feels doable. The my desk detail changes the whole answer.

I agree with the goal and disagree with the method. A little friction removed goes a long way.

@curious_rizky Small caveat: context changes the answer a lot.

Really good advice, and it feels doable. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability. I needed this reminder today.

Same here. It took me too long to learn.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are. My only addition is to make the first step visible.
