## Tactical Playbook
- Systematize cognitive load management: Impose strict, self-denying personal routines (e.g., standardizing attire and meals) to eliminate micro-decision fatigue, preserving maximal bandwidth for high-velocity operational decisions.
- Decentralize execution while centralizing vision: Architect the initial strategic 'spark' or narrative, then delegate technical development, allowing your team autonomy within absolute, minimalist constraints.
- Utilize friction as an innovation engine: Actively 'take the difficult way' by reframing absolute limitations (zero budget, discarded materials) as the primary design driver to force resourceful, unconventional solutions.
