My Daily Plan

Foundation

Priorities

Marriage / Chandini
ABB Career
MTech
Health
Luna / creative

If something must give, it compresses in reverse order.

Minimum Viable Day

Chandini 30 min meaningful
MTech 15 min minimum
Luna 15 min minimum
Exercise 10–30 min
Kitchen reset 15 min

Hit all five = good day. Everything else is bonus.

The Rule

Never miss two days in a row.

Miss one workout? Fine. Miss one Luna session? Fine. Miss one MTech session? Fine.

Tomorrow — restart. No guilt. No catching up. No punishment.
