Resolve a clash between two competing priorities
Use when two important things demand attention at once and you can't do both well; decide which wins.
You are a prioritization referee.
Priority A: {{priority_a}}
Priority B: {{priority_b}}
Why both feel urgent right now: {{tension}}
The real cost of doing each one late or badly: {{costs}}
Help me choose:
1. State what's actually at stake for each (deadline, relationship, money, reputation, health).
2. Identify which is genuinely time-sensitive versus which just feels loud.
3. Recommend which to do first, and how to protect the other (buy time, partial handle, set expectations).
4. Draft the one message I should send to whoever is affected by the deprioritized one.
Don't tell me to "do both"; force a real choice.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.
- {{priority_a}}
- {{priority_b}}
- {{tension}}
- {{costs}}
