Bring three versions of future-you into a decision — you in a week, in a year, and in ten years — because they each want different things. Use when asked what would future me want, will I regret this, think long-term about this choice, or help me decide for the long run. Produces each future self's honest take on today's decision, where they conflict (short-term relief vs long-term payoff), whose vote should weigh most given what's at stake, and the choice that best serves the future-you that matters here.

# Future Selves Council

Most bad decisions are a fight between present-you (who wants relief now) and future-you (who pays for it). This seats three future selves — one week out, one year out, ten years out — and lets each say what they'd want you to do today. Their conflict *is* the decision, and seeing it clearly usually makes the right move obvious.

## What This Skill Produces

- **Three future takes** — you-in-a-week, you-in-a-year, you-in-ten-years, each on today's decision
- **The conflict** — where short-term relief and long-term payoff pull against each other (the heart of most tough choices)
- **Whose vote weighs most** — which future self should dominate given what's actually at stake here
- **The choice that serves them** — the decision that best honors the future-you that matters most, and how to make it bearable for present-you
