Creating a Better Open-Ended Problem Statement

Hi, I want help creating a better open-ended problem statement for a decision I'm facing. I'm trying to move away from thinking in terms of specific options and instead broaden how I'm viewing the problem. Here's my current (possibly too narrow or choice-focused) problem statement: 👉 "{Insert your current decision question here — e.g., Should I stay in my job or start freelancing?}" Please prompt me through a series of questions one at a time to offer 2 or 3 improved versions that help me think more broadly about my decision. Feel free to challenge me with questions like: "Is this really the problem?" or "How else could I be looking at this?" So I can test whether I've structured the problem as well as possible. I would like to ensure the decision problem: Eliminates specific alternatives or choices from the question. Restructures the question to start with an open-ended word like "what" or "how." Reflects the deeper priorities or values that matter most in this decision (e.g., financial stability, time with family, creativity, personal growth, etc.). Ask me any clarifying questions if you need more detail to help!
