Practicum for Chapter 11, "Your first 90 days: a personal plan"

The chapter turns a diagnosis into the first move. This page gives you a fillable plan built around one task and a supporting canvas for choosing it.

What to do in 30 to 40 minutes

  1. Choose one recurring task for the next 90 days.
  2. Name the old rule you follow in that task today.
  3. Choose the new rule you want to establish.
  4. Decide which capability you will keep and practice yourself.
  5. Complete the personal 90-day plan: task → old rule → new rule → capability → verifiable change. Then map Days 1-30 / 31-60 / 61-90. The worksheet includes a completed "contract workflow" example.
  6. Return on Days 30, 60, and 90 and check which rule won in real work.

Unsure which task to choose? Use the Weak multiplier canvas as a supporting filter.

Unsure which capability to practice? The personal plan includes "Naval's four pillars". It shows which skills AI made cheaper and which became more important.
