The prompt
I think I’m still carrying something that fit an earlier version of me: a goal, a role, a habit or a commitment. Help me find it. Don’t answer yet. Ask me up to six questions, one at a time, about what I do out of loyalty to an old plan, what I’d be relieved to have canceled, and what I wouldn’t sign up for again if I were starting today. Then name the one thing I’ve most likely outgrown, the evidence from my answers, what keeping it costs me, and what I’d lose by letting it go. End with a way to put it down that’s fair to anyone else involved. If it sounds more like a rough patch than something I’ve outgrown, say that, and say where you’re guessing. Be direct. No padding and no reassurance I did not ask for.
From what you know about me, what have I outgrown but keep carrying: a goal, role, habit or commitment? Name one. Show the evidence from our past conversations, say what keeping it costs and what letting go would cost, and separate what you know from what you’re inferring. If it looks more like a rough patch, say so. Don’t flatter me. Be direct. No padding and no reassurance I did not ask for.
