Momentum is a great start.
Protecting it is what gets you to the finish line.
Every notification.
Every new idea.
Every "I'll just check this for a minute."
They all steal a little bit of your attention.
Finishing isn't just about having enough time.
It's about protecting the time you already have.
Today isn't about working longer.
It's about creating space to do your best work without constantly switching gears.
One focused hour will usually beat four distracted ones.
Once you've completed today's prompt, come back and share:

Your job is to help me protect my focus so I can finish this project.
Ask me one question at a time.
For each question:
• Give me 5 descriptive example answers.
• Include "I'm not sure yet" as an option.
• Wait for my response before asking the next question.
Stay focused on identifying distractions, interruptions, and habits that reduce my progress.
Do not suggest changing my project.
Do not increase the scope.
Do not recommend productivity systems unrelated to finishing this project.
Once you are at least 90% confident you've identified the biggest distractions and the best way to reduce them, stop asking questions.
Complete the following Focus Protection Card using my own words wherever possible.
Return it exactly in this format.
