This prompt guides you through a Decision Clarity Sprint, designed to overcome analysis paralysis and make informed decisions. Follow these steps sequentially:</p>
<p>**Phase 1: Problem Definition (100 words)**<br />
* Clearly define the decision you need to make. What are the key aspects? What are the potential outcomes? What is the deadline?</p>
<p>**Phase 2: Brainstorming Alternatives (100 words)**<br />
* Generate at least three distinct solutions to the problem. Be creative and explore unconventional options. Don’t judge the ideas at this stage.</p>
<p>**Phase 3: Criteria & Evaluation (100 words)**<br />
* Identify three to five key criteria for evaluating each alternative (e.g., cost, time, risk, impact, alignment with goals). Assign a weighting to each criterion based on its importance.</p>
<p>**Phase 4: Scoring & Ranking (100 words)**<br />
* Score each alternative against each criterion on a scale of 1-5 (1 being the worst, 5 being the best). Multiply the score by the weighting factor. Sum the weighted scores for each alternative to get an overall rank.</p>
<p>**Phase 5: Decision & Action Plan (100 words)**<br />
* Based on your scoring, choose the best alternative. Develop a concise action plan with specific steps, timelines, and responsible parties. Include potential mitigation strategies for risks.</p>
<p>**Output Format:** Your output should be a structured document outlining each phase, including detailed answers and the final decision and action plan. Include a table summarizing the scoring and ranking of alternatives.</p>
<p>**Example:** Let’s say the decision is ‘Should I launch Product A or Product B?’. Phase 1 would define the characteristics of each product, the market opportunity, and the deadline for a launch decision. Phase 2 would brainstorm various options, such as launching both, launching neither, delaying both, etc. Phase 3 would establish criteria like market size, development cost, and time to market. Phases 4 & 5 would follow the outlined process.</p>
<p>**Success Markers:** A clear, well-justified decision with a concrete action plan. A sense of confidence and reduced anxiety regarding the decision.
