Dark Knight Discipline.
The climb. The first 4 hours of the day. Have control over the climb phase. Start the day creating. Build momentum.
- The 'no witness' hour. One single task. Intense focus. No distractions (News, Social media). Protect your attention.
- The one-rep max task. Single uncomfortable task. 20 min.
- The fuel protocol. Power up. 30 min after waking. Water and light protein.
The facade. A layer of strategic engagement.
- The signal lock. Phone is a tool, not your boss. A single urgent goal. Ignore everything else.
- The Wayne hour. A scheduled interruption. To disengage.
- The 'No zero-day' commitment. The smallest, easiest single action that still makes progress.
The Audit. Nightly shutdown and review.
- The inventory check. Clean & tidy. 3 things you did well, 3 things you did not finish.
- The weaponization of sleep. Quality of sleep. Cool and dark. Recovery for tomorrow.
- The pre-mortem. Target the most difficult task for tomorrow. The most important single action to prevent failure in that task.
