Working definition
Social performance vs self-authored score is the fork between copying society’s productivity poster and writing your own definition of Life Performance.
How it works
Ideal week ≠ seven copies of ideal day. Productivity · creativity · forest · recovery compose your score. Slowing down can accelerate ideas.
Example
You sold yourself a week of twelve-hour screens because the coaching poster still treats hours-glued as virtue. Forest time and a protected nothing-block felt like cheating — so your ideal week collapsed into seven copies of the same grinding day. When ideas stall, you add more hours instead of rewriting the dictionary. That is B3 miss — name your Life Performance (including recovery) in one sentence before you borrow the social score again.
Signature
If performance for you includes scheduled nothing, name it without apology.
Social poster vs own dictionary — write the score you will actually keep. Your move: Your move this week.
Your move this week
One sentence: my performance = … (include recovery if that is true for you).

Social performance chases the sociometer; self-authored score returns to autonomy — your dictionary of excellence, not the 12-hour poster.
