Identifies what you are allowing that conflicts with your stated standards.

List the behaviors, commitments, patterns, conversations, or decisions you keep tolerating even though they violate your standards.

For each item, mark one of three actions: accept openly, correct directly, or remove.

If you choose to keep tolerating something, stop pretending it is not part of the system.

OUTPUT: One tolerated issue converted into an explicit decision.
