ONE QUESTION · ONE CONNECTED WHY CHAIN

{{selected_category}}

Answer the strategic question once as a concrete Need. Wize then immediately asks WHY? three times. Every answer uses the exact same grammar: I need to ___ so that I can ___. The chain is Need → Why 1/Wish → Why 2/Dream → Why 3/Fantasy.

Status{{'COMPLETE' if complete else next_level}}{{chain|length}} / 4 statements
FIVE STRATEGIC QUESTIONS
{% for c in categories %}{% set count=counts.get(c,0) %}{{c}}{% if count==0 %}Start with Need{% elif count==1 %}Need ✓ · Why 1 / Wish next{% elif count==2 %}Why 1 ✓ · Why 2 / Dream next{% elif count==3 %}Why 2 ✓ · Why 3 / Fantasy next{% else %}Complete ✓{% endif %}{% endfor %}
{% if why_prompt and previous %}
WHY? You just said: I need to {{previous.need}} so that I can {{previous.so_that}}. Now tell Wize why that matters by writing the next complete I need to ___ so that I can ___ statement.
{% endif %}
{% if complete %}CHAIN COMPLETE

All three Whys are answered

The concrete Need is your Goal. The Wish, Dream and Fantasy preserve the reasons behind it. Next, assess the Need with PERT.

Run PERT on the Need Goal → {% else %}{% if next_level=='Need' %}START HERE · NEED / GOAL{% elif next_level=='Wish' %}WHY 1 · WISH{% elif next_level=='Dream' %}WHY 2 · DREAM{% else %}WHY 3 · FANTASY{% endif %}

{% if next_level=='Need' %}{{selected_category}}{% else %}Why does the statement above matter?{% endif %}

{% if previous %}
PRIOR ANSWER

I need to {{previous.need}} so that I can {{previous.so_that}}{% if previous.because %} because {{previous.because}}{% endif %}.

WHY?
{% else %}

Answer {{selected_category}} in one structured sentence.

{% endif %} {% endif %}
EXAMPLE · WHAT IS WINNING?

The Why is another full Wize statement

Need / Goal

I need to make money so that I can buy a car.

WHY? ↓
Wish / Why 1

I need to have reliable transportation so that I can get to work consistently.

WHY? ↓
Dream / Why 2

I need to buy a house so that I can cut down on rent and build stability.

WHY? ↓
Fantasy / Why 3

I need to build long-term financial freedom so that I can choose how I spend my time.

Rule: Do not answer a Why with a fragment like “because transportation.” Turn the reason into another complete I need to… so that I can… statement.
