Protect Your Workout As Non-Negotiable

Prioritize Using The Four Futures
- Use the Four Futures framework (Mind, Meaning, Muscle, Money) to prioritize daily actions and check in each morning.
- Daily gratitude and short guided meditation help you spot negative thought loops and re-center priorities.
Match AI Tools To Specific Tasks
