Demand Stack

Catching stacking before it happens — by looking at the whole window, not the new item.

A keep-close version. Read it here, or screenshot this page to have it on your phone — print and PDF copies will appear once final files are attached.

Overload usually arrives without any single item looking guilty: three 'manageable' things land in the same window, and together they aren't. This shows what's already in the window before anything else is added.

What's already in today's window?

Everything — including the invisible. Rough lines are fine; this is a glance, not an audit.

Already in the window

e.g. Shower, phone call with the bank, dinner to sort

And in the background?

  • A poor night's sleep
  • Something emotionally running
  • Recovery not yet landed from yesterday
  • What tomorrow holds, quietly pressing back on today

How full is the window, honestly?

Room for one small thingRoom for nothing newAlready over — something needs to move

If something must be added, what gives?

The new thing goes to a different daySomething already stacked moves outOne thing happens in a smaller versionSomeone else carries one of themNothing gives — so nothing gets added

The one-line rule: if the day already holds two demands, the next one needs a trade, a different day, or a smaller version. Spacing things isn't admitting weakness — it's placing them where they fit.
