Writing to a loyal client yourself: a waste of time for some, the heart of the job for others.
As AI takes over routine tasks, one question becomes strategic: what should you hand over to it, and what should you keep doing yourself, because you enjoy it or because doing it is how you keep your skills? This module helps you make these choices deliberately, then reinvest the time you save in the work that feels most like you.
