Your phone is the most persuasive negotiator in your life. The Notification Charter reframes alerts as simple policy: three alert tiers (urgent, digest, silent), narrowly scoped contact exceptions, and low‑ego auto‑responses. This episode walks you through exact wording for contact scripts, platform‑aware setup tips (iOS and Android differences called out), a 10‑minute hands‑on installation routine, and a seven‑day micro‑trial with clear, binary measurements. You’ll hear a 60–90 second micro‑case study of a project manager who reclaimed focused mornings during her trial, illustrating how small, repeatable checks reveal bigger habit change. The episode includes a one‑page show‑note checklist for different devices so setup doesn’t stall, plus alternative softer scripts if you prefer a gentler tone. No drama, no deprivation — just durable, considerate rules that protect attention and relationships. Try one Notification Charter rule tomorrow and tell us how it went.
