The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+I’m preparing a long policy memo and need to speed up editing. Give me a list of the five keyboard shortcuts I should use most in writing and revising: navigating between headings, selecting a paragraph, undo/redo, bold/italic, and inserting a link. Explain when to use each in one short sentence so I can memorize them and start using them today.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I hand this draft to the editor, surface the shortcuts that will save the most time editing. Highlight the ones for jumping between headings, duplicating a paragraph, find-and-replace, and applying heading styles. For each, show the keystroke and a typical editing situation where it cuts minutes off the task, and suggest a practice drill to master it in five minutes.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I’m three hours into edits and my hands keep leaving the keyboard to mouse-select headings.
I’m deep in revision and keep grabbing the mouse to jump between sections, which costs time and breaks focus. I know there are shortcuts for moving between headings and formatting text but I can’t remember them under pressure. Tell me the exact five shortcuts to stay on the keyboard for the whole session and a quick mnemonic to lock them in for this edit pass.

Become — change the pattern
+I lose time to mouse navigation when editing long docs.
Across projects our writers waste dozens of hours monthly because they default to the mouse for navigation and formatting. What single habit shift would yield the largest time savings? Recommend a short training routine, three priority shortcuts to enforce, and how to track adoption in the next two weeks.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
