Things you can say

Say these in the notebook's chat, or in Telegram on the one-line server. The words are examples: Godspeed goes by what you mean, and many requests work in German too.

• context on its own: a five-minute chat about where you live, about you, and what you want help with first.
• let me tell you about me, get to know me or I want to fill in my profile: the same chat.
• skip, not now, later, pass or no: moves on to the next question.

• 1 and 3: only those steps go ahead.
• not 2: that step stays back.
• I wrote 1,400 words this week for my novel, or any number for a goal's weekly number: saves it as this week's reading.

A step that costs money always waits for your yes. One that goes out to a person in your name waits too, unless you allowed that kind of step.

More: Add, follow, change or stop a goal, Approve, stop or allow a step

• how is my Charm Challenge?: the days to go, the end date, your longest run and how often you started over.
• charm slip: starts over at 21 straight away.
• When you vent at an AI, in whatever words, the answer ends with Back to 21? Yes / No. yes starts over with a new end date; no changes nothing and counts as a reset you talked it out of.
• stop the Charm Challenge: ends it. Nothing is lost; say the word and a new one starts.

The count is yours, not the AI's. Godspeed keeps it in a tracker of its own, carries one line in your morning brief, and starts over only when you say so.
