I’ve continued getting value out of Thinking Assistants, for things like “notice earlier when I am in a situation where I need to break out my full debugging toolkit”.
Another thing more recently is helping with some habits and routines even on days when they’re not fully pairing with me.
Some examples include routines like “remember to check calendar in the morning, remember to take my meds with lunch”, and more reflex-like habits like “notice when I’m tensing my shoulders for no reason and relax.”
In theory, seems like you could have someone who only did the latter things, and maybe periodically DMd me with “hey, are you working on what you endorse working on right now?”, for an 80⁄20 of the process. I think it’s pretty valuable and makes it feel more real that I have an ongoing relationship with them and we have some shared context that helps establish new habits.
