Original practice · Optional exercise · Small beginnings

Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.

  1. Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A blank document waits behind six open reference tabs.
  2. Write a rough heading and one question before opening another source.
  3. Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
  4. Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.
