2. Lone Wolf
Assume that you’re stuck in the woods alone
for 12 days. You have enough food, water and
shelter to keep you perfectly happy but nothing
else­—no phone, no companions, no entertainment.
HOW WOULD YOU SPEND YOUR TIME?
“Treat others the way you want to be treated”
is a wonderful rule, but far too few of us do it.
If you treated those around you in the same
exact way that you want to be treated,
WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY?
Assume that you’re going to die 10 minutes
from now, and there’s no way you can escape it.
HOW WOULD YOU CHOOSE TO DIE AND
HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT
AFTER YOUR DEMISE?

Your Demise
In Your Honor
It has finally happened—your birthday
is being recognized as a national holiday.
WHY DID AMERICA DECIDE TO
HONOR YOU, AND HOW WILL PEOPLE

3. You wake up in a jail cell, you get three words.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
If you were faced with the choice of traveling
anywhere in the world with no expenses for
the rest of your life (nonstop, continuous travel,
where you were only able to stop at each location
for 7 days before being forced to move on) or not
being able to travel at all (you could only go as
far as 10 miles from your home in any direction),
WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE? WHY?
You have two choices—you can be forced to
devoutly practice a religion that you vehemently
oppose for the rest of your life, or you can be the
world’s foremost leader in that same religion for
a period of 5 years. If you choose the latter, you
will forever be known as that religion’s leader.
WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY?

Dream Debacle
Imagine that your wildest dreams could come
true tomorrow—but to realize them, you would
have to cut all ties with your current life, and your
family and friends would have no memory of you.
WOULD YOU DO IT? WHY? IF NOT,
WHAT’S STOPPING YOU?

4. Impulse
Decision
Imagine you are going to lose one of your five
senses for the rest of your life, and you only
have five seconds to decide which one it will be.
WHICH SENSE DO YOU CHOOSE TO LOSE
AND WHY?
We live in a fairly modern and progressive
society. But what if some of the biggest
cultural and political advancements had never
happened—ending segregation, women’s
suffrage or repealing prohibition, to name a few.
IF YOU COULD ONLY PICK ONE CAUSE
TO RALLY BEHIND, WHAT WOULD IT BE
AND WHY?
Your Absolute
If you suddenly had the ability to read everyone
else’s mind but getting that ability also meant that
everyone could read your mind, WOULD YOU
KEEP THE ABILITY, OR WOULD HAVING
YOUR MIND READ BE TOO MUCH OF
A DISSUASION?
Mind Reader
Call it the ultimate déjà vu—but you are caught
in your very own version of Groundhog Day.
WHICH DAY WOULD YOU WANT TO LIVE
OVER AND OVER AGAIN?
Perpetual
Repetition
