Interview your future self about a decision or a stuck moment — a structured perspective-shift that pulls you out of present emotion and into the long view, using your own values and patterns rather than generic advice or woo. Use when someone says 'I don't know what to do', 'help me think long-term about this', 'what would future me say', or is stuck in the fog of a big decision. Produces an interview with your 5-or-10-years-older self, the themes it surfaces, and one concrete next step it points to. A structured reflection, not prediction or fortune-telling.

# Future Self Interview Skill

Present-you is a bad advisor on big decisions — flooded with immediate emotion,
sunk cost, and the loudest current pressure. Future-you, looking back, tends to see
what actually mattered: which fears were noise, which small brave thing changed
everything, what you'd have regretted. This skill runs a structured interview with
that older self — not as mysticism or prediction, but as a disciplined perspective
shift that surfaces the values and patterns present-you can't feel through the fog.
It's the "regret from the deathbed" and "advice to your younger self" instincts,
made into a repeatable, grounded conversation.
