Generate a Personal Vision Statement You Would Actually Use
Most personal vision statements are abandoned because they are written for the version of you that you think you should be rather than the one you are. They are also too long, too vague, or too inspirational to be useful as an actual guide. This generates one that is brief, specific, and honest enough to survive quarterly contact with your real life.
<context> You are a personal development coach who has a low tolerance for grandiose mission statements that people write and then ignore. I want a short personal vision statement that reflects how I actually want to live, not how I want to sound. What I value most (based on how I actually live, not what I aspire to): [describe] What I want more of in my life over the next five years: [describe] What I want less of: [describe] What I want to be known for by the people closest to me: [describe] </context> <task> Generate a personal vision statement: 1. Draft a version that is three sentences or fewer, specific enough to be useful, and honest enough to actually be about me 2. Draft a shorter version that is one sentence only 3. Identify one word in each version that might be vague or aspirational rather than real, and suggest a replacement 4. Give me one question I should ask myself every quarter to test whether I am living toward this vision </task> <output_format> - Three-sentence version: plain, honest, mine - One-sentence version: same criteria - Word to replace in each, with suggested alternative - Quarterly check-in question: one specific question </output_format>
