You have known for about two years roughly what needs to change, and you are still where you were. This turns Claude or ChatGPT into a life coach AI that works on direction rather than discipline: what you want the next three years to look like, which one of the five things in front of you matters, and the decision you keep putting off.
Paste the file in once. The first session is six questions about your last two years, your real floor on money and time, and what you would regret at sixty. That becomes one twelve week goal with a number you can check, three moves that serve it, and a written list of what you are deliberately not doing. Every fortnight it reads four lines back and either holds the goal or retires it.
Mindset and Affirmations
When a stall comes from the sentence you keep telling yourself, the coach helps you rewrite it into a few believable statements tied to your twelve week goal.
-
Catch and test: write down the exact sentence you say when you avoid the move, then check whether it is a fact or a forecast
-
Believable, not grand: statements you could say to a friend without wincing, about action rather than worth, three at most
-
Four kinds: identity in progress, permission, commitment with a date, and the constraint said out loud
-
Honest limits: no manifesting promises and no forced positivity; harsh self-talk that runs for months is pointed to a doctor or someone you trust
It cannot see your life, only what you tell it, and it is not a therapist. If what you describe sounds like depression rather than drift, it says so and points you to a doctor. It never tells you whether to leave the job or the city. One payment, pay once, keep forever.
