💪 #AppleReminders as commitments, not tasks
Every reminder I add means:
“I’ve decided this deserves my energy.”
That’s different from a to-do list. It’s a declaration, not a wish.

💰 #AppleCalendar for time debt
Once a week, add blocks for the hours you owed yourself:
→ Missed break
→ Skipped workout
→ Delayed day off
Then schedule them back in. Time debt only disappears when you repay it.
