Revenue first when drifting.

If you find yourself tidying inbox or apps, snap back to Vidmuse follow-through, EarnOS contract, or AfricAI sponsor outreach.
Founder, not content strategist.

Every offer, rate, video filtered through the founder lens. Not creator-tactics. Not AI-bro reviews.
Kill the old self — daily.

Change the man, not the cards. Pattern-interrupt during the sprint.
Stop pestering Cunningham.

Friendship > deal. Don't surface as a "today lever" again.
