How to Chunk Work So You Actually Ship
Chunking is the time-management move that reduces the emotional size of work so one buyer-facing action can ship before the plan becomes another hiding place.
A useful chunk is small enough to finish, visible enough to prove, and connected enough to the outcome that it cannot become fake busy work.
The tool earns its place only after the pressure is named.
