The problem
Your life is connected. Your plans should be too.
Work affects your energy. Energy affects how you train, how you show up for others and what you have left for yourself. When your thoughts, goals and plans live in different places, it is easy to stay busy without moving towards what matters.
One stance in focus each week.

03 · Action
One useful next step, every day
Today opens with a little reflection and one next action. Mark it done, partly or not done, and it flows into your plan, your outcome and your review.
Today with one next action and up to three priorities
Planner as list, calendar, board or timeline
Journal by hand, scan, voice or keyboard
04 · Evidence and correction
Review, adjust and keep moving towards B
Reviews count what you planned and what you did, over a real week, month, quarter or year. Then you decide what to keep, change or let go, and take the next step.
Signals each with what it counts
Feel, data, decision kept apart on every review
History with every record on its real date

The method
A to B, noise cancelled.
Six steps you can enter anywhere. What you notice shapes the choice; what happened shapes the next step towards B.
Reality → Correction → Reality
Reality, decision
Notice what is happening, then choose a direction you can name.

Decision
Given both, what am I going to do?
Why Sigma
Your thinking, with support.
Sigma reads back what you gave it and suggests one next step, with its sources shown. Its suggestions are AI-assisted and use only what you gave it. You decide what fits.
Leadership stances
Positions you choose to act from, each with what it asks of you. One in focus at a time.

Who it’s for
Wherever you start, it is the same practice.
For anyone who wants more from their life than they get now, whether they see it yet or not. The entry differs; the loop does not.
Training is the proof. Sigma works on what decides whether it happens: sleep, focus, and the decisions you keep parking.
A year on the horizon. A quarter to see it move.
Consistency is the whole game. Show up a little every day, and each quarter you see it move.
