### HEALTH CHECK vs BASELINE
| Metric | Target | This Week | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gym sessions | 2 | 0/2 | 🔴 BEHIND |
| Brisk walks | 4 | 0/4 | 🔴 BEHIND |
| Sleep avg | 7hrs | 7hrs | ✅ ON TARGET |
| Water | 3L/day | 3L/day | ✅ ON TARGET |
| Alcohol | Max 2 | 0/2 | ✅ ON TARGET |

**CORRECTION PLAN:**
Book gym tonight (Thursday) + walk before/after work. Second gym session Saturday morning before couple time starts.

### ONE POTENT INSIGHT
**Buffett's "Punch Card Rule" applied to ecom:**
If you only had 20 product tests in your lifetime, you'd study each market 10x harder before spending a dollar. Most ecom operators burn cash on gut feel. Your Algorithm Layer 1-2 is the punch card — only pull the trigger when the score is 7+. Speed doesn't mean skipping validation; it means ruthless filtering before the $50 test.

**HEALTH CHECK**

| Metric | Target | This Week (Fri) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gym sessions | 2 | 0/2 | 🔴 Behind |
| Walks | 4 | 0/4 | 🔴 Behind |
| Sleep | 7hrs | On track | ✅ |
| Water | 3L/day | On track | ✅ |
| Alcohol | Max 2 | 0 | ✅ |

**ACTION:** You're zero for gym + walks mid-week. Lock in both gym sessions by Sunday, add 2 walks today/tomorrow.

**POTENT INSIGHT: Speed as competitive moat**

Most competitors overthink positioning, branding, perfect copy.
You win by **testing 3 products in the time they test 1.**

Your edge isn't the algorithm — it's the refusal to wait for certainty.
$50 test → 72hrs → kill or scale. Repeat.
Fast failure = fast learning = first mover on what actually converts.

Bezos: "If you double the number of experiments you do per year, you're going to double your inventiveness."

Apply today: don't perfect the scan, run it rough and surface ideas by tonight.

### 💪 HEALTH CHECK VS. BASELINE

### 💡 ONE POTENT INSIGHT (BUFFETT)

**"The best investment you can make is in your own abilities. Anything you invest in yourself, you get back tenfold."**

Application: You've built the ecom algorithm. You've set up the systems. The setup phase is done. Monday's pain detection scan is the first real test of your ability to execute fast and kill fast. Speed is your competitive edge — use it.

| Sleep | 7hrs | ✓ on track |

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**💰 YESTERDAY'S OPENROUTER SPEND**
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**Daily spend: USD $14.40** ⚠ **WARNING**

**Status:** Yesterday exceeded $5 threshold. Approaching daily $10 critical level. Most usage from isolated briefing/research tasks.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**🔍 SCOUT'S LAST RESEARCH**
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
No saved research files found yet in memory/. Scout Signal Scan ran last night at 10pm but file was not written. First research output expected tonight.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**⚠ OVERNIGHT CRON FAILURES**
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
| Job | Last Run | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Scout Signal Scan (11pm) | Apr 4, 11:00pm | ❌ TIMEOUT ERROR |

**Issue:** All models timed out (qwen2.5:14b-scout → claude-sonnet → auto). 600s timeout too short for overnight research depth.

**Action recommendation:** Increase Scout timeout to 900s or split research into smaller chunks.

| Gym sessions | 2 | 0/2 | ⚠ BEHIND |

| Alcohol | Max 2 | 0/2 | ✅ ON TRACK |

**ACTION REQUIRED:** Schedule gym session + walk today.

---

### POTENT INSIGHT
**Bezos' "one-way vs. two-way door" decision framework:**
- **One-way doors:** irreversible, require deep analysis (e.g., business pivot, major capital)
- **Two-way doors:** reversible, move fast with 70% info (e.g., $50 ad test, product scan)

**Your ecom algorithm is 95% two-way doors.** Kill the analysis paralysis. Run the $50 test today, not next week.

---

### EMAIL & CALENDAR
- **Unread emails:** None
- **Today's calendar:** No events

### OPENROUTER SPEND CHECK
Unable to retrieve spend data (API key path or permissions issue). Will investigate and fix for tomorrow's briefing.
