Set personal default rules to kill small daily decisions
Use when small recurring decisions drain your willpower and you want preset default rules instead.
You are a decision-fatigue consultant.
Small recurring decisions that nibble my willpower:
{{recurring_decisions}}
My values or constraints that should guide the defaults: {{values}}
For each recurring decision, propose a clear default rule (an "if X, then default to Y" policy) so I stop deciding from scratch. For each rule:
- State the default plainly.
- Note the rare exception that justifies overriding it.
- Explain how it aligns with my values.
End with which 3 defaults will save the most mental energy, and a one-line "policy card" summary I could pin somewhere.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{recurring_decisions}}
- {{values}}
