SHEET 00 · WHAT I DO

Everyone explains what to do. I design the doing.

Most of what decides our day is small: where a thing is kept, what we see first, when something ends. Nobody designed those small things. I do. A card, a stone, a mark on a door frame, put in the right place, so the right thing becomes the easy thing.

FIG. 1 · THE BRAVE MARKS (EXAMPLE)
3 yrs 4 yrs jumped, 2nd step said sorry first light off, alone 3 yrs 4 yrs jumped, 2nd step said sorry first light off, alone pencil + the door frame you already use
Height always gets a mark on the door frame. Brave moments happen too, and they're forgotten by dinner. So brave gets a mark too. The frame fills up, and a child can see how brave they've become.
SHEET 01 · MANIFESTING, DESIGNED

A wish you have to remember stays a wish.

The room around us stays the same every day. So give the wish a shape, and put it where your hand already goes. You don't have to believe harder. You have to see it in your path.

THE WISH "Read more." THE DESIGN The book on the pillow.
THE WISH "Start running again." THE DESIGN Shoes by the door, laces open.
THE WISH "Finish it this year." THE DESIGN 30 small steps on the wall.
SHEET 02 · THE WORK

Things I've designed, and how they took shape.

Each one started as something nobody could see. Each went through rough versions before it worked. They're made properly by CHAOSSIC, the studio I founded.

SHEET 03 · SMALL FIXES

You don't have to read all this. Copy the design and start tonight.

Each fix takes about five minutes, with things you already have. Each one comes with a build card.

The One-Thing Card

Tomorrow's one action, propped against the kettle. Flip it into a clip when it's done.

The Close Stone

A stone left of the laptop all day. Move it right at close, and work is over.

The Brave Mark

Next to the height marks, a star and a date for each brave thing.

The Shoe Outline

Taped shoe outlines by the door, so a child can see what "ready" looks like.

The Ten-Minute Chair

One chair by the window and a sand timer. Ten minutes, just you.

The Goal Ladder

The goal as 30 small steps on the wall. Move one across each day.

Comment FIX on any post, or message me, and I'll send the build card.

SHEET 04 · HOW I WORK

See. Cue. Show.

01

See

Find the small thing nobody can see: the moment that keeps going wrong, the step that keeps getting skipped.

02

Cue

Give it a shape and a place: an object, a mark, a line, right where the moment happens.

03

Show

Make the result visible too: a clip of flipped cards, a wall that fills. What we can see, we keep doing.

Rough first → tested at home → made properly.

SHEET 05 · REVISIONS

About

I didn't change all at once. I changed one small thing at a time, and learned to design those things for other people.

REVYEARWHAT CHANGED
A2011First interview. Couldn't read a newspaper aloud without stumbling. No degree.
B2021Coach and team leader.
C2022First leadership award. Over 1,000 people coached in a behaviour-design method.
D2025Global content developer.
ENowFounded CHAOSSIC, a behaviour design studio in Bengaluru. Designing the small things full-time.
SHEET 06 · WORK WITH ME

Bring one small thing that keeps going wrong.

Workshops

A small group. You arrive with one thing that keeps going wrong and leave with the fix built.

Talks

For teams, schools and communities: how small things decide what we do, and how to design them.

One-to-one

We look at your day together and design it, one fix at a time.

For a whole place

A home, school, workplace or street, designed and made by CHAOSSIC.
