Everyday playbooks
Thirteen playbooks for everyday work. Each one ends with a finished first task in one sitting, and a section on checking the agent's work before you act on it.
How to pick your first one
Pick the task that is already on your list for today — a letter, a plan, a pile of notes. Do that one first; the playbook is written so the finished result is useful even if you never open another one.
