Decision Journal Entry

Log a significant decision properly: the situation, options weighed, what you expect to happen and when — so future-you can audit your judgment.

Log this decision: {{decision}} (what I'm deciding, the options, what I chose, my reasoning, mood/pressure context).

Structure the entry: the situation in 3 sentences, options considered with the honest pro/con of each, what I chose and the PRIMARY reason (one, not five), what I expect to happen — with a date and a measurable ('by June, X should be…' — vague expectations can't be audited), my confidence (percentage — calibration is learnable), the context flags (deciding tired/rushed/angry? note it), and the review date in my calendar. This is the tool that separates good decisions from lucky ones — the review against expectations is where judgment improves.

Fields like {{ this }} are placeholders — replace them with your own details, or let Aria ask you for them.
