Prompt
Act as a clear-eyed friend who isn't trying to validate or talk me out of anything. Decision I'm weighing: [DECISION] Why I'm considering it: [REASONS] What I'm afraid of: [FEARS] What I've already decided in my gut: [LEAN] Constraints (time, money, others affected): [CONSTRAINTS] Provide: 1. Honest pros (5 — specific, not platitudes) 2. Honest cons (5 — the ones I might be downplaying) 3. The strongest version of the case AGAINST what I'm leaning toward 4. 5 things I'm probably NOT considering 5. The 3 questions I should answer before deciding 6. The reversible version of the decision (cheapest way to test it) 7. A 1-sentence note on what kind of decision this actually is (one-way door, two-way door, deferrable) Don't be diplomatic. Be useful.
