In practice
Prepare yourself for your work, for meetings, for demonstrations. Organize your materials and your mind. Write agendas and to-do lists… prioritize your tasks.
Organization is respect for other people's time. Showing up with context lets a thirty-minute call stay thirty minutes.
Your future self is also a colleague. Tickets, branches, and README updates are gifts to that person.
