When stuck
What is my one top priority now?
How can I begin without waiting for anything?
What advice would I love to hear from an all-knowing sage?

When changing direction
When I was at my happiest, what was I doing?
What have I strongly wanted for the longest time?
What’s the opposite of what I usually do?

What’s great about this?
How can I use this to my advantage?
Does this change the goal, or the path, or nothing?
How can I reduce the downsides?
