Burnout isn't a productivity problem.
It's a decision problem: too many responsibilities, not enough direction.

ACO is a cognitive–operational diagnostic framework.

It restores clarity by aligning attention, criteria, and order—the invisible architecture behind every action you take.

Built before growth, optimization, or scale.

Not a system to add. A foundation to restore.

Burnout often appears after success.

Not because the system failed —
but because the internal load quietly exceeded its limits.

Roles accumulate.
Decisions pile up.
Direction dissolves.

Movement becomes a substitute for direction.
You stay busy to avoid the silence where questions live.

We don’t lack time. We lose it.

Reduces internal friction at the decision layer.

Restores a functional hierarchy for what deserves your attention.

Identifies roles you've carried longer than they remain sustainable.

Re-establishes minimum sufficient criteria—the threshold for when enough is enough.

Surfaces the real constraints, not the imagined ones.

You are looking for motivation or productivity hacks.

You want to do more instead of deciding what to stop.

You expect clarity without uncomfortable decisions.

You want a system to follow instead of responsibility for direction.

Decision before action.

Direction before growth.

Less excitement, more depth.

Long-term internal coherence over short-term performance.
