Reflection style · How do you usually make a decision?
Eight questions about everyday decision habits, followed by a study starting point that may fit you.
This is a self-report about ordinary habits. It does not cast a hexagram, judge your situation, or give practical advice. Your answers stay in this page and disappear when you close it.
Questions
- When something is stuck, what do you do first?
- For a difficult choice, what carries the most weight?
- When someone offers advice, what do you most want to hear?
- At the end of a day, what are you most likely to do?
- What draws you toward a classical text?
- Looking back six months, what would you most like to know?
- When the same issue returns, what do you tend to do?
- What should a study tool help you do?
Four styles and starting points
- The structure reader: You tend to map the people, moving parts, and the next hinge point. Begin with line positions and relations between hexagrams. (Start with hexagram 3)
- The values checker: You care whether a choice fits the person you want to be. Begin with the core text, then place its language beside your own trade-offs. (Start with hexagram 15)
- The small-step starter: You prefer one modest action and real feedback to long deliberation. Record each attempt and review the pattern later. (Start with hexagram 1)
- The retrospective reader: You trust careful review of the road already taken. A journal and regular return visits give that habit a durable shape. (Start with hexagram 24)
