Parking lot
Drift pulling you away? Park it here.
Come back after your transition breath.
Nothing parked yet.
Stay on task — park drift here.
The 5 rules
The contract you made with yourself.
1
Homework before curiosity — always.
Submit first, explore after.
2
When you drift, park it — don't follow it.
5 seconds to write it down, then return.
3
One task per block. French time is not dev
time. Dev time is not French time.
4
The transition breath is not optional.
It is what separates finishing from drifting.
5
Ship something small every day in dev —
even one line of real code counts.
Curiosity without output is just entertainment.
Daily practices
Small habits that protect your focus.
Before every block. Inhale 4, hold 4,
exhale 4, hold 4. Clears mental fog
before demanding work.
Mid-morning. Scan feet → legs → belly →
shoulders → jaw. Soften each area. Kitchen
work makes tension creep up without you
noticing.
Between every block. Stand up, 5 slow
breaths, say: "That task is done.
This is what's next." This is what
separates finishing from drifting.
Switch French modes every 60-75 minutes —
grammar → listening → speaking → curiosity.
Each switch is a rest for the others.
Never one long block.
When curiosity pulls you — park it in
5 seconds, return immediately. Curiosity
time comes after homework, not during.
Pick one French word for tomorrow.
Say it once before your first block.
Ancrage, concentration, patience —
one word sets the tone for the day.
Your most controlled time is 4-7am.
Protect it completely. No social media,
no messages, no decisions — just the blocks.
