“I cannot focus.”

── PROTECT ATTENTION WALKTHROUGH ──

Recording pending

The written layer is complete and stands on its own.

If you need persuading on why any of this is worth doing, go back to The Operator's Reset. This document assumes you are already convinced and want to install it.

── WHAT THIS PRODUCES ──

An environment decision, the smallest set of friction layers that reliably stops your own pattern, a project structure you can recover context from, and a reset process for the day you bypass it.

Time
about 30 minutes to read and deploy. Longer if you are changing where you work, because that involves going and looking at places.
Window
a week for the stack, two if the environment is changing.
Next
SOP 2, Tech Teardown and Spring Cleaning.

── DEFINITION OF DONE ──

Facts
You know which of the three forces is producing today's version of the problem, which severity tier you are in, and what each layer does.
Feelings
A diagnosis rather than another list to feel guilty about.
Functionality
At least one layer running before you close this document, and a reset process that does not involve a two-hour internal trial.
