List what would change your mind
Works with ChatGPT · Claude
Name in advance the evidence that would flip your decision.
The problem
Once we decide, we defend the choice instead of updating it.
What this skill does
AI helps you pre-commit to the signals that should change your mind.
When to use it
- Use right after making a tentative decision.
Juni’s tip
Juni says: deciding what would change your mind keeps you honest later.

Weak vs. better
am I sure about this
For my tentative decision — [decision] — list 3 specific things that, if they happened or proved true, should change my mind, plus how I'd notice each. Keep them concrete and observable.
Why this works
Naming your 'change-my-mind' triggers protects you from defending a decision past its expiry.
Practice task
Take a decision you've made and write down what would change your mind.
Self-check
- Triggers are specific and observable
- Each trigger has a way you'd notice it
- They're genuine, not impossible to ever meet
Common mistakes to avoid
- Vague triggers like 'if it goes badly'
- Setting bars so high nothing could change your mind
- Forgetting to actually watch for them
