Follow these steps:

### 1. Fix the starting point

Identify the starting point and the specific decision or constraint that could be altered.

### 2. Generate divergent directions

Produce several fundamentally different directions — genuinely divergent paths, not variations on a theme.

### 3. Make each branch concrete

Specify what would differ in practice and the unique trade-offs of each branch.

### 4. Map the divergence

Note where paths split and whether branches could later recombine.
