Stuck between choices? Score each option against weighted criteria and get a clear recommendation plus the risks of each path.

Prompt

Decision: [what you need to decide]
Options: [option A, option B, option C]
What matters to me: [criteria, e.g. cost, time, growth, risk, enjoyment]
Constraints: [budget, deadline, non-negotiables]

3. Calculate totals and rank the options
4. List the biggest risk and best-case outcome of each option
5. Do a gut check: which option would I regret not choosing in 5 years?
6. Give a clear recommendation and the first step to take this week
