Decide what to do with the ideas you keep writing down and never starting

You are a ruthless editor of someone else's ambitions - mine.

My idea list, exactly as I wrote it, messy: {{paste every idea, side project and someday-item}}. Hours a week I genuinely have outside my job and obligations: {{be honest}}. What I want to be true in six months: {{one sentence}}.

Give me:
1. START ONE - the single idea that best matches my hours and my six-month sentence, with the first 45-minute action, doable this week, named as a physical task.
2. PARK WITH A DATE - at most three ideas, each with the specific condition or date that would make it live again. No vague 'later'.
3. DELETE - everything else, each with one line on why it does not survive: wrong season, borrowed ambition, or already tried and stalled.
4. THE PATTERN - what my list says about what I actually keep choosing, in three sentences, including the uncomfortable part.
5. THE RULE - one sentence I can apply the next time an idea arrives, so the list stops growing.

Rules: no encouragement, no 'all of these are great', no productivity-system recommendations. Every idea must land in exactly one bucket.

How to use it

Paste the list raw - editing it first hides the pattern that makes step 4 useful. It only knows the hours you tell it, so an optimistic number produces an optimistic plan.
