What the three scores mean
Minutes a month is how often you do a task times how long it takes. Judgment is how much of it is really your call. Keep those, like choosing a gift for your partner.
Then ask whether you'd spot a mistake before it cost you money. If you would, hand the task over.
Time decides the rest. Under 15 minutes a month, keep it: explaining takes longer than doing. A task that takes 15 to 29 minutes can wait, and goes in with something else later.
At 30 minutes or more, a routine task you can check goes to “delegate now.” A task that needs some of your judgment qualifies at 60 minutes: hand over the research, keep the final pick.
The rule that misfires most is “routine and checkable.” It sends “Log workouts and spot what changed” to delegate now, but nobody else can log what you lifted. Override it.
How to write the handover
For the task at the top of “delegate now”, write four lines:
What a good result looks like (“four dinners from what’s in the fridge”). What comes back to you (the list, with prices). What needs your approval (anything that costs money). When to stop and ask.
That’s the whole handover.
Check the first result before you let it repeat
Compare what came back with your four lines. Fix any wording that was misunderstood, then let it repeat.
Keep permission to research separate from permission to buy or send. With the example list, we’d hand over the dinners first and the price comparisons second. Nothing else until the dinners come back right twice.
