🎯Choice Map

for the one drowning in options but starving for a direction

Goal

Map one anchor problem through adventure options to one lighthouse choice.

Source principle

Move from an anchor problem through adventure options to a lighthouse choice you can commit to. : from Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett & Dave Evans.

The plan

1. ⚓
   0:00-0:10

   Name one anchor problem. The thing you keep circling.
2. 💡
   0:10-0:25

   Brainstorm 5 adventure options. Wild is fine. No editing.
3. ⭐
   0:25-0:35

   Score each on resources / likeliness / coherence. 0–5 each.
4. 🔍
   0:35-0:45

   Reread the scores. Notice which one surprises you.
5. 🏮
   0:45-0:50

   Pick the top 2 as lighthouse candidates. Just two.
6. ✍️
   0:50-0:55

   Write one sentence on why each candidate matters.
7. ⏳
   0:55-1:00

   Schedule a 24h hold. No decision today. Let them breathe.
8. 📅
   1:00-1:05

   Commit to one lighthouse choice with one prototype. Calendar it.
