Modern life makes you feel like you’re the problem. You’re told to grit your teeth, stay positive, and spin faster. But the truth is the structure itself is broken. You’re not defective. You’re overloaded.

In "The 5 Laws of Agency," I explain why our architecture for decision making, attention, and energy was built for a simpler world. Today we’re expected to process thousands of inputs, make endless choices, and perform at all times. You’re not weak for feeling scattered or tired. You’re trying to carry more than a human mind was designed to hold.

The solution isn’t more productivity hacks. It’s rebuilding the underlying architecture. The five laws—Alignment, Capacity, Direction, Asymmetry, and Navigation—give you a framework to regain control. They help you identify where your agency leaks and how to reclaim it without burning out.
