SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Decompose vague aversions into specific sub-aversions that can be addressed directly, enabling clearer planning and more reliable follow-through.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposition: Breaks down an aversion into its smallest contributing sub-aversions.
  • Button Test & Prioritization: Validates which sub-aversions actually block action and prioritizes fixes.
  • External vs Internal Fixes: Recommends concrete environmental changes or reframing strategies for each blocker.
  • Use Case: If you dislike going to the gym, map sub-aversions like time, self-consciousness, and equipment, then apply targeted fixes to reduce the overall aversion.

Quick Start

Describe a current aversion and walk through its sub-aversions to identify actionable fixes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I break down a vague aversion into actionable steps?▼

To break down a vague aversion, you decompose it into its smallest contributing sub-aversions. This structured decomposition reveals specific blockers in daily tasks, enabling clearer planning and reliable follow-through.

What is the best way to identify which sub-aversions are actually blocking my action?▼

The best way to identify blocking sub-aversions is applying a button test to validate them. This process tests which specific environmental or emotional blockers prevent action, allowing you to prioritize targeted fixes.

How do I address emotional resistance and personal habits that cause aversions?▼

You address emotional resistance by categorizing fixes into external environmental changes and internal reframing strategies. This categorization guides you to apply targeted interventions for each mapped blocker in real-life scenarios.

When do I need to decompose an aversion instead of trying to push through it directly?▼

You need to decompose an aversion when vague emotional resistance prevents reliable follow-through in daily tasks. Mapping sub-aversions reveals concrete action steps, transforming a general dislike into addressable components.

Does this aversion decomposition method work for complex personal habits like going to the gym?▼

Yes, aversion decomposition works for complex personal habits like going to the gym by mapping sub-aversions such as time, self-consciousness, and equipment. You then apply targeted fixes to reduce the overall aversion.
