The method

Read, name, change.

Everything in the 71 pages fits into three stages. Each stage has one output, and the next stage is not allowed to start before that output exists.

The stage	What you do	Time	The output
1 — Read the scene	You describe what happens, hour by hour, without judging it.	7 days	Three columns: start · break · what preceded the break.
2 — Name the substitution	“Instead of ______, I did ______ — and it gave me ______.”	5 minutes	One sentence, dated.
3 — Change one variable	You alter the order, the support, or the position — never all three.	1 evening	A checkpoint: “by Friday I can ______, book closed.”

The three rules that make it hold: ten minutes before any plan · one variable per week · the checkpoint decides the next week.

Six weeks, one instrument at a time

Three sessions of twenty minutes per week. Each week installs one instrument and ends with a checkpoint you write yourself — not a tick, a sentence.

Week	Instrument	Checkpoint
1	the three questions	three dated pages for one subject
2	the substitution sentence	five sentences: what the avoidance gave you
3	the three-column week	the hour it breaks, and what precedes it
4	the unwatched page	version B then A, for two prompts
5	the act before the plan	ten minutes done before any new timetable
6	the audit	keep · rebuild · drop, written and dated

This is not a book about studying — opening page of the masterclass — The opening of part one. It says what the book is not before it says what it is.

On the two characters

Ayanokoji and Lelouch are fictional characters, and they are treated as fiction here: two habits of mind — observe before acting, plan toward a clear objective. The book contains no artwork, no dialogue and no scene from those works, and no fictional scene is offered as proof that a method works.

Your course material and your teacher decide what is correct. The book only changes where you look first.

Best seller. Of the three books, this is the one most readers buy first — and the one we tell beginners to postpone. If this is your first month, start with the guide.
