Your shower is not a boardroom. Please stop using it as one.
Instead of mentally rehearsing tomorrow’s meeting or relitigating Tuesday’s argument, try noticing the water temperature, the smell of the shampoo, the sound of the spray. Your brain will revolt immediately and try to pivot back to “so anyway, what I should have said was—” and you just gently bring it back. That tug-of-war is the practice. Ten minutes of actually being in the shower is worth more than ten minutes of planning you’ll redo at your desk anyway.
Time required: As long as your shower. Stop worrying about your hot water bill during it, too.
