Talk, don’t type
A ten-minute walk and three spoken questions replace my to-do list.
I think by talking, and a walk I already take carries the habit. Tying a new habit to an old one is the only way I’ve kept one.
- Put on shoes, open Rosebud (a voice journal app) and walk.
- Answer three prompts out loud: How am I feeling this morning? What’s weighing on me right now? What’s the one thing that would make today a win?
- Back home, paste the transcript into Claude Code. It reads yesterday’s log and hands me one to three tasks.
- They go into my Apple Reminders “Today” list, whose phone widget runs the rest of my day.
Missing a day is fine. Missing two without saying so is the danger zone.
