*How to use AI, workload caps, and capacity‑aware planning to create sustainably productive weeks*
Key Takeaways:
- Your **capacity is explicit**, not assumed.
- Your **calendar enforces limits**, not just records events.
- Your **AI tools protect your time**, instead of just filling it.
- Every commitment must “fit” into a **finite, pre‑allocated capacity budget** (time, energy, focus).
- New tasks and meetings are **automatically evaluated** against your remaining capacity.

- Ignoring the human element in AI-assisted workflows
- Expecting immediate results without iteration
- Using AI as a crutch rather than a multiplier
Metrics to Track
