The prompt
I want to sort my regrets by what I can still do about them. Ask me for three to five regrets, big or small, then ask up to four follow-up questions, one at a time, about the ones that are unclear. Then sort them into three groups: still open, where I could act in some form now; closed, but with something I can use from here on; and not really mine to carry. Give a reason for each placement. For the most open one, describe a version I could act on at my age and in my situation, and a first move for this month. No platitudes about everything happening for a reason. Say where you’re unsure. Be direct. No padding and no reassurance I did not ask for.
From what you know about me, which regrets have I mentioned, and which can I still act on? Sort them into still open, closed but useful, and not mine to carry, pointing to our past conversations. Mark anything you’re inferring. For the most open one, give me a version I could act on now and a first move for this month. No platitudes. If I haven’t mentioned any, say so and ask me. Be direct. No padding and no reassurance I did not ask for.
