How to finish what you start

If you keep starting strong and stalling late, the problem usually isn't motivation or discipline. It's that your work is structured in a way your specific failure pattern can defeat.

• Name the pattern — find your Execution Archetype.
• Shrink the unit — run a mission small enough that stalling has nowhere to hide.
• Make it immutable — no re-scoping mid-flight.
• End in proof — every mission closes with a shipped artifact.
• Compound it — each completed mission builds your streak.
