◆ The useful middle
Notice more.
Assume less.
◆ Three minutes
From a cue to a next step.
1
Common explanations
What it commonly reflects.
2
What it cannot tell you
What it does not reliably indicate on its own.
3
What would change that
What context or pattern would change that.
4
One next step
One useful next step, if there is one at all.
◆ The kinds of cues
What we look at
Five kinds of cue, rotated across editions.
Visible changes
Cues you can see.
Skin texture, nail growth, hair shed, mouth and tongue appearance, eye changes, swelling.
Sensations
Cues you feel.
Temperature asymmetries, tingling, pressure, a pulse you can feel where you usually cannot.
Daily rhythms
Cues that show up on a schedule.
The 3 AM wake-up, the 4 PM energy dip, the second wind at 10 PM.
Measurements
Cues you can put a number on.
Resting heart rate, blood pressure, cycle length, sleep duration.
Recurring patterns
Cues that repeat.
The bloating that arrives on a schedule. The cough that returns every spring.
◆ Every morning
Read it before you Google the next thing.
Your first edition arrives tomorrow morning.
Not medical advice. One cue. Three minutes. No diagnosis.
