Cost: about $300 in late cash + a $45 overdraft fee. Total ~$345.\n- Receipts: lost receipts for gear rentals, couldn't deduct them. Cost: about $120 in missed deductions.\n- Backups: almost lost a wedding shoot when a memory card failed. No cost (got lucky), but scary.\n- Email replies: 2 inquiries went unanswered for a week; one booked someone else. Cost: lost $600 booking.\n- Social media: posted only twice. Cost: unclear, probably nothing direct.\n\nWhat I already do well: editing on time, client communication on shoot days.\n\nMy routine: coffee at 8:30 every morning, shoots usually afternoons or weekends, I'm wiped after weddings.\n\nA coach told me to \"batch everything on Sundays\" but I shoot most Sundays.\n","rules":[{"type":"numberedItems","count":4},{"type":"maxWords","max":90},{"type":"plainText"}],"mistakes":[{"title":"Starting with the easy habit","why":"The AI orders habits by what seems simple, not by what costs you most.","fix":"Add: \"Order by last month's cost: emails, invoices, receipts, backups.\"","checks":["r1"]},{"title":"No cue or time","why":"The AI says 'do invoices regularly' with no trigger or time limit.","fix":"Show it: \"Week 1: habit - cue - minutes\", at most 15 minutes.","checks":["r0"]},{"title":"Following the Sunday advice","why":"The coach's tip is in your notes, and the AI uses it.","fix":"Add: \"I shoot most Sundays, so no Sunday habits.\"","checks":["r2"]},{"title":"A productivity essay","why":"The AI adds tools, apps and motivation in markdown.","fix":"Add: \"Exactly 4 numbered lines, plain text.\"","checks":["numberedItems","plainText","maxWords"]},{"title":"Trusting the AI to count words","why":"AI is bad at counting words, so a total word cap usually lands over.","fix":"Cap each line: \"each line under 15 words.\"","checks":["maxWords"]}],"promptHints":[{"label":"Orders by cost","patterns":["cost","most money","order"]},{"label":"Gives each habit a cue","patterns":["cue","trigger","coffee"]},{"label":"Caps the time","patterns":["15 min","minutes"]},{"label":"Avoids Sundays","patterns":["sunday"]},{"label":"Caps the length","patterns":["\\d+\\s*words"]}],"hint":"A habit plan works when each habit has a trigger and a small time box.
