Big Decisions & Turning Points
This section is the “why I chose what I chose” archive. It trains your legacy avatar to think like you—not just talk like you—by capturing the biggest decisions, the tradeoffs, the regrets, and the moments where one choice changed everything. Future generations will use this like a compass: how you judged people, when you took risks, when you played it safe, and how you recovered when you chose wrong. Answer each question for any age with the decision principle, the real story, and what you’d do again (or never do again).
