5 min readMany bad decisions look good when you stop at the first consequence.

Most of us think we understand something until we try to explain it simply. This method makes hidden gaps obvious.

Simple explanations reveal what you really know. If you can't explain a part clearly, that part needs more attention.

Pick one concept you're learning. Set a timer for five minutes and explain it as if you were teaching a beginner.
Quick lessons for checking claims, spotting weak evidence, and making cleaner decisions.
Small lessons for choosing more clearly when options, pressure, or uncertainty make the next step blurry.
Tiny lessons about attention, routines, friction, and the small actions that make behavior easier to repeat.
