What should I take off my plate first?

Choose a frequent, observable job with stable inputs and a reversible output. Do not begin with the most important or dangerous task just because it is annoying.

Your move

Choose one repeatable job

Use a narrow, frequent task whose first outputs are quick to review and reverse.

Use this rule

Choose a frequent, observable job with stable inputs and a reversible output. Do not begin with the most important or dangerous task just because it is annoying.

Do this now

Three moves, in order.

  1. List recurring work that leaves a visible output such as a draft, record, reminder, or summary.
  2. Mark frequency, time spent, input stability, reversibility, and consequence if wrong.
  3. Choose one narrow job whose result you can review quickly.

Build the artifact

Delegation target

Copy these fields into a note, document, or sheet you already use.

Job One recurring action
Trigger What starts it
Output What finished work looks like
If wrong The consequence and whether it can be reversed

Give AI the bounded job

Prompt from your artifact—not from vibes.

Rank these recurring jobs for a first supervised AI workflow. Use only my frequency, stability, reversibility, and consequence notes. Explain the tradeoff; do not invent time savings.

Before you use it

The work leaves your hands only when:

  • The job has a visible start and finish.
  • A person can review the first outputs quickly.
  • The first workflow cannot commit money, publish, delete, or promise without approval.
