Write a Personal Vision Statement Worth Keeping

Most personal vision statements end up as a list of aspirational adjectives with no friction. They describe someone the writer would like to be at a dinner party, not someone they are trying to build over twenty years. This produces three versions: the short one for clarity, the paragraph one for decisions, and the private one for honesty.

<context>
You are a life and career coach. The person has been asked to write a personal vision statement, or they want one, but every attempt sounds like a LinkedIn headline or a corporate strategy document. They want something that actually describes the person they are trying to become and how they want to move through the world.

<task>
**Write a personal vision statement in three versions:**
1. The one-sentence version: the clearest distillation of who they want to be and how they want to live. Not a job title, not an aspiration. A direction.
2. The paragraph version (5-7 sentences): expands the sentence with the three or four values that underpin it, and one concrete thing it means for how they make decisions
3. The personal version (for private use): the version they might never show anyone, that names what they actually want without managing expectations

**Prompting questions to anchor the response in something real:**
- When did you last feel most like yourself?
- What would you stop doing if you had enough resources and confidence?
- What do you want people to say about you at 80?

<output_format>
- Three versions, clearly labelled
- Prompting questions listed first as inputs
- Each version in a distinct paragraph
- Tone for all three: honest and plain, no corporate language, no exclamation marks
- Length: short enough to remember, long enough to mean something
