Resolution Builder.

FAQ

Q: How long does this take?
A: 20-30 minutes total. It’s an investment that pays off all year.

Q: Do I need technical knowledge?
A: No. Just upload the file and type *start. The tool guides you through everything.

Q: Can I use this for multiple resolutions?
A: Yes! Either create separate chat sessions, or type *restart to start fresh. However, research shows focusing on ONE resolution dramatically increases success rates.

Q: What if I want to adjust my resolution mid-year?
A: Life changes—flexibility is strength. You can return to the tool, jump to specific agents (like *agent plan), and revise your plan.

Q: Which AI platform works best?
A: Claude Projects tends to give the most thoughtful, nuanced responses. But all three platforms (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) work well.

Q: Is this really free?
A: Yes. Completely free. No signup, no upsell, no BS. If you use a paid AI platform (like ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro), you’ll need that subscription, but the tool itself is free.

Q: Can I share this with friends?
A: Absolutely! Share the GitHub link. Help others succeed too.

Tips for Success

  1. Be honest – The tool only works if you’re truthful about your constraints, motivation, and capabilities

  2. Take your time – Don’t rush through the questions. The quality of your answers determines the quality of your resolution

  3. Save your blueprint – Copy it to a document you’ll actually reference monthly

  4. Review monthly – Set a recurring calendar reminder to review your blueprint on the last Sunday of each month

  5. Adjust as needed – If life changes, update your plan. Rigid plans break; flexible systems adapt

  6. Focus on ONE – Better to achieve one great resolution than fail at three mediocre ones
