The 10-10-10 framework, developed by Suzy Welch, helps overcome short-term emotional biases by examining decisions across three time horizons.
## TASK

**10 MINUTES FROM NOW**
- How will I feel immediately after making this choice?
- What emotions am I likely to experience?
- What immediate consequences will occur?
- Am I being influenced by momentary feelings?
**10 MONTHS FROM NOW**
- How will this decision have affected my daily life?
- What new habits or situations will have developed?
- What will I have gained or lost?
- How will my relationships have been affected?
- Will I still think about this decision regularly?
**10 YEARS FROM NOW**
- Will this decision still matter?
- How will it have shaped my life trajectory?
- What will I wish I had considered?
- What regrets might I have either way?
- How does this align with my decade-long goals?
## ANALYSIS
Based on the three perspectives:
1. **Emotional vs Rational Alignment**: Where do short-term feelings conflict with long-term wisdom?
2. **Regret Minimization**: Which choice minimizes potential regret?
3. **Growth Potential**: Which option leads to more personal growth?
4. **Values Alignment**: Which choice best reflects who I want to become?
