About the journal

Daily Clarity started in 2024 as an internal document — a shared file where four people who kept losing their afternoons wrote down what actually worked. It outgrew the file.

How a piece is made

Someone on the desk tries a method for at least three weeks and writes up what happened, including the part where it did not hold. A second person reads it and argues with the weakest paragraph. Nothing is published on a schedule; pieces appear when the three weeks are over.

Where a claim about attention or memory comes from published research, we describe the finding in plain language rather than citing a number we cannot verify ourselves. Where it comes from our own practice, we say so. The distinction matters more than it looks.

What we will not publish

No morning-routine theatre and no system that requires buying anything. We also stay out of health, medicine and personal finance entirely — those subjects need qualified professionals and a different kind of publication. This one is about working hours.

Corrections

When a piece turns out to be wrong we edit it and add a line at the bottom saying what changed. Two articles have been rewritten that way so far. If you find a third, write to the desk.

Independence

There is no advertising on the site, no affiliate links and no sponsored pieces. The journal is funded by the consulting work the desk does the rest of the week, which is also where most of the examples come from.
