A Universal Decision Prompt: Use "What Will You Regret in a Year" to Force a Verdict
Stop picking a role for every decision (financial planner / career coach / relationship coach) — one universal prompt, four steps. The regret line is the core — it forces the model from "it depends" to "actually do this."
I'm trying to decide [X] vs [Y]. (1) Name expert + what they watch (2) List their steps (3) Where most people get it wrong + regret a year later (4) ONE sentence verdict

Why is the "regret line" the soul of this prompt? Because when you ask a model to weigh a decision, it hedges — pros, cons, it depends. Regret framing forces it to commit and name the one thing you need to hear. If the model can't surface a real regret, the decision isn't as big as you think and you can move on. Works for: pay off the car or invest / take the new job or stay / should I leave this person or try harder / go solo or take VC money / ship MVP now or polish another month. The role changes. The prompt doesn't.
