Walk through the sheet with your own example
This helper follows the Rethink one process worksheet. It asks for four inputs, marks the current steps, proposes one changed interaction and helps you write a small test.
Unzip the files and open START-HERE.md. Use the skill in an assistant that supports skills, or ask your assistant to read the supplied instructions. The ZIP includes the skill, an output format and a labelled presentation example.

More to take
- Rethink one process
Find the back button in a job you do every week, then redesign that one moment and test the change.
- Why saying "use more AI" doesn't work: the survey, the prompt and what to do next
Next to the doom-and-gloom headlines, "use more AI" sounds like adopt or die. This guide goes with No Manual Yet Issue 11. It gives you an 8-question anonymous survey that asks your team whether they see you leading by example, a prompt that builds it for your own team, and practical pages on what to do with each pattern of answers.
- Outbound at scale: the build guide
Turn one researched prospect into a repeatable job, then carry it through a sheet and a laptop app.
