  "title": "Pre-plan the most common derailment",
  "summary": "Recurring derailments deserve a response rule before they arrive again.",
  "kind": "protocol",
  "body": "Identify one high-frequency obstacle and create a specific if-then response that protects the session or deliberately reschedules it. Rehearse the response mentally and test whether it is feasible. One good obstacle plan is more useful than ten generic promises to be disciplined.",
  "limits": [
    "Some interruptions genuinely outrank practice. The plan should support appropriate switching, not resist emergencies or necessary collaboration."

      "claim": "A 2024 meta-analysis of 642 implementation-intention tests found effects across cognitive, affective and behavioural outcomes, with larger effects for contingent if-then plans, higher motivation and rehearsal.",

      "role": "supports",
      "note": "A cue–response plan helps execution; it does not establish that the chosen goal is valuable or should remain dominant.",

      "claim": "A review of cognitive control argues that adaptive behavior requires both cognitive stability for task focus and cognitive flexibility for switching when goals or circumstances change.",

      "role": "contextualizes",

    "When the same interruption, temptation or obstacle repeatedly steals the dominant practice block."

    "Some interruptions genuinely outrank practice. The plan should support appropriate switching, not resist emergencies or necessary collaboration."
  ],
  "example": "If an urgent client issue consumes the morning block, then the practice moves to the first free 30-minute slot before optional project work, rather than disappearing silently.",
  "check": "The next occurrence of the obstacle triggers a preselected response instead of a fresh negotiation.",
