Well done, including the prompts. I'm reminded of Eno's Oblique Strategies.

"Discover the recipes you're using and abandon them" from Oblique Strategies is a good one.

For significant personal decisions, I sometimes reflect: "If my kids faced this decision/situation, what mental framework would I be proud of them using?" This question is so effective, it's embarrassing.

Edit: "almost embarrassing" --> "embarrassing"
