The four heights

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

I need a new slide deck for the client workshop on Friday that looks professional and copies our firm’s template. Create a blank deck named Client Workshop - 2026-07-23, include the cover slide and a one-line agenda slide, and save it to the Consulting/Clients/Acme/Presentations folder so I can attach it to the calendar invite.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I start filling slides for the client workshop, make the deck easy to update by everyone on the team — add a cover slide with the Acme logo, a one-line agenda that highlights the three decisions we need, and a notes slide with our speaker name and time allocations at the top.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I just opened a fresh deck and it has no template applied

I opened a blank file and need it to match our firm look for a Friday workshop with Acme. I don’t know if the default theme will print correctly or if the logo will be on every slide. What is the most likely issue and the safest next step to make this deck identical to our other client decks before I populate content?

Become — change the pattern

I keep recreating new decks from scratch each client

Over the last six months I’ve repeatedly rebuilt client decks from memory: cover, agenda, five content slides, and appendix. That costs me time and causes inconsistent branding. What one habit should I change so every new deck starts correct and my team can pick it up without back-and-forth?

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.
