Ourling

Set a limit on planning responsibility

State how much planning you can take on before an activity becomes too much work.

Try this

  1. Break the proposed activity into concrete tasks, including reminders and follow-up.
  2. Accept only the pieces you can own. If no one takes the remaining work, reduce or postpone the activity instead of silently absorbing it.

A worked example

“I can book the table, but I cannot organize everyone’s transport too.”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

Assign the remaining tasks explicitly or reduce the plan’s complexity.

This is a voluntary planning exercise. Keep your notes private, adapt the language, and leave any question unanswered. It does not require Ourling or a purchase.
