Practice asking open GROW questions instead of giving advice in every mentoring meeting.

Replace every passive voice with active — writing becomes direct and decisive.

Salary, marriage, children questions — prepare a non-aggressive closer phrase.

French/Dutch tolerate direct critique; East-Asian needs it wrapped.

Don't ask "do we need another hire?" — ask "if we started today with nobody, who'd we hire first?".

Disable all red count badges on app icons — they are engineered to trigger OCD reflex.

Each scroll-urge, execute pre-defined substitute (10 breath cycles, drink water, 5 squats).
