Decide by Friday
Name the decision you keep postponing. June writes a first draft of the answer now, and a reminder brings the thread back on the day you set.
The decision you keep carrying becomes a one-paragraph draft you can disagree with, and a date when the thread comes back to you.
What you need
- Nothing to connect. This works in any thread, on the web, in the app or in a direct message with June in Slack.
Set it up
Tell June the decision and the date, with what you know: the options, what worries you, who it affects.
June drafts the decision, the reasons and what you give up. Push back until it reads like you.
Ask for a reminder on the day, with the draft in it; a reminder holds up to 2,000 characters. On the day, reply with what you decided, or ask June to move the reminder.
I need to decide whether we drop the Starter plan, by Friday. Write me a bad first draft of the decision, with what we lose
Remind me Friday at 10:00 Berlin time to decide, and put the draft in the reminder
Move the Starter plan reminder to Tuesday at 10
The Decide by Friday guide tells the longer story behind this recipe.
What June does not do
- It does not decide for you, and it never marks a decision as made.
- It does not notice that you decided sooner. The reminder comes at its time; ask June to remove it.
- It does not tell anyone else about the decision unless you ask it to draft that message.
