Thanks for the encouragement! The framing’s for my own benefit, too. I’ve found it helps me navigate big decisions to write out the best case I can think of for both sides, and then reread sometime later to see which best convinces me.
Yeah, I can see how that would be helpful—I’m thinking of having a go at it as a decision-making tool myself.
The approach kind of reminds me of internal family systems therapy, actually: trying to reconcile different parts of yourself by imagining them as different people. The main difference being that there’s no trauma in this kind of scenario (hopefully, anyway!), and a lot less psychotherapy jargon :)
