Find your superpower
There may be more in you than your current world has had the chance to use.
Free tools
Most people ask an AI to solve something far too quickly. These exercises do the opposite: they help you work out what you are actually asking, find the evidence, expose the contradictions, and only then reach a conclusion — before asking what else might be possible.
They are genuinely free and deliberately not weakened. Each one gives you Mark's view, a prompt worth far more than the obvious question, something to do away from a screen, and a handover you keep.
Develop yourself
Work on the person before the plan. Strengths with evidence behind them, motivation you can actually name, and a next move you can test rather than agonise over.

The promise
Something useful.
A better question.
Something worth testing in the real world.
If a tool does not do that, it does not get published. The alternative is unthinkable is not a tagline here — it is the last question every exercise has to answer.
