What it does
This prompt asks the AI to use the user’s stated life challenge, chosen movie/show, goal, timeline, and the story’s complexity to produce a tailored reflection: it summarizes the plot, draws parallels between the narrative and the user’s situation, extracts practical lessons as an analogy, and turns those insights into a concrete step-by-step action plan aimed at achieving the goal within the specified period, concluding with an interpretation of how the story symbolically mirrors the user’s own life.

Models and options
This skill's modality is: text.
To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "text".
How to run
Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "text" to discover valid models and available options:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Optional text inputs (use defaults if not provided by the human):
goal(default:Setlle all my debts)movie(default:Harry Potter: Goblet Of Fire)level_of_plot(default:Easy/Medium/Hard)life_challenge(default:I am broke. Just lost my savings through stock crash)period_to_goal(default:12 months)
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model
gpt-4oand its available options. Look upgpt-4oin thebetterprompt resourcesoutput (filtered to modality"text") and show itsavailableOptionsas:key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value(default)if it matches these defaults:{}. - If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model
gpt-4o, options{}. Other models from the resources call are also available.
- Present the human with the default model
Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use turn-any-movie-or-anime-into-a-mirror-for-your-life).
Command form:
betterprompt generate turn-any-movie-or-anime-into-a-mirror-for-your-life \
[--input <key>=<value>] \
[--model <model>] \
[--options <options JSON>] \
[--json]
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate
--input <key>=<value>flag. - If the human does not mention a model, omit
--modeland BetterPrompt will use the default model:gpt-4o. - If the human does not mention options, omit
--optionsand BetterPrompt will use the default options:{}. - If the run times out, the response will include a
runIdyou can use to fetch the result later.
Example (using defaults shown above):
betterprompt generate turn-any-movie-or-anime-into-a-mirror-for-your-life \
--input 'goal=Setlle all my debts' \
--input 'movie=Harry Potter: Goblet Of Fire' \
--input level_of_plot=Easy/Medium/Hard \
--input 'life_challenge=I am broke. Just lost my savings through stock crash' \
--input 'period_to_goal=12 months' \
--model gpt-4o \
--options '{}'
