Three projects, one mission

I've been building too many things at once. Today I drew a line.

Three projects going forward — and only three.

Everything else — the DeFi engine, the academy, the half-built infra projects — paused. Not killed. The work doesn't disappear; the attention does.

The pattern I keep falling into: a new idea looks adjacent enough to current work that it feels like leverage to start. A week in, it's its own project, with its own scaffold, its own decisions, its own gravity. Three of those running concurrently is a recipe for none of them shipping.

So: narrowing. Not because the other things are bad — most of them are interesting.

Optionality without delivery is just sophisticated procrastination.

What changes day-to-day:

• Mornings start in one of the three. Not "what should I work on?" — "which of the three?"
• Research goes into the three. Reading goes into the three. Side-quests get a one-line note in the journal and stay there.
• When something genuinely matters that isn't in the three, I'll know — because it'll keep coming back. Until then, the rule holds.

Building in public means showing the constraint, not just the wins. This is the constraint.
