# Context
Original working context:
- Step 1: My situation as a founder: My biggest productivity challenge: {{describe}}. What I wish I had more time for: {{describe}}.
- Step 2: Audit my current time: Categorize last week's calendar by type (deep work / meetings / admin / reactive / personal). What % of my time is on my most important work?
- Step 3: Design my ideal week: What does an ideal 50-hour work week look like? Block types, priorities, protected times. Build the ideal weekly template.
- Step 4: Build the focus system: Morning routine, deep work blocks (90-minute minimum), inbox/Slack batching protocol, and end-of-day shutdown ritual.
- Step 5: Create the weekly review process: Every Friday — what to review, what to plan for next week, and how to ensure my time allocation stays aligned with my priorities.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.

- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When the days feel long but the months feel unproductive — a personal operating system fixes the allocation problem.

PRO TIP

The founder's time is the company's most valuable resource. Everything you do personally is either the highest leverage use of your time, or it's something you should delegate, defer, or delete. Your calendar is your strategy — if these don't match, nothing will.
