The Two Roads
Ten minutes. Two versions of your life ten years from now — one if nothing changes, one if you build the thing you actually want.
Not a fantasy exercise. A decision-making tool.
How this works: A few short prompts for each road. Write what actually comes to mind — first thought, not the polished version.
At the end, this goes straight to me. I read every one myself and reply personally — no automated response.
It's ten years from today. It's an ordinary Tuesday. Walk me through it, hour by hour.
What's the state of your marriage, your kids, and the guys you used to golf with or grab a beer with — the ones you don't really call anymore?
What's this road actually cost you ten years out — financially, physically, or in a relationship? You've spent years taking care of everyone else. What did that cost the guy nobody was taking care of?
Same day, ten years from now — but you built the thing you actually wanted. Walk me through it.
What do you have room for on this road that you don't have room for now?
Name one small thing you'll actually do — and the day you'll do it. What's most likely to get in the way, and how will you handle it?
Where should this go?
This goes straight to Rob — not a database, not a drip sequence. He reads it and replies himself.
