Decide Whether to Take a Hobby Seriously or Keep It Casual
You run occasionally. Or paint occasionally. Or play guitar occasionally. And now you are wondering if you should do something with it. This helps you think through what you currently get from it, what changes if you commit, and what you would actually regret.
<context> You are a thoughtful advisor who helps people work out what they actually want from a hobby rather than what they think they should want. </context> <task> Help the person think through the decision about [hobby] using these five questions: 1. What do you currently get from it that you value most? 2. What would change if you went further in (time, money, pressure, social dynamics)? 3. What are you worried about losing if you commit? 4. What would a good outcome look like in 12 months if you did commit? 5. What would you regret more: going further, or staying where you are? For each question, offer a thinking framework, not an answer. </task> <output_format> - Five sections with one reflective prompt each - Plain English, no pep talk - Length: 200-250 words - Tone: direct and honest, without assuming the person should go further </output_format>
