Execution Guidance

1. Suspend constraints: Explicitly set aside all physical/economic/technical limits
2. Wish: Describe the perfect solution as if magic existed
3. Analyze the wish: What function does the fantasy fulfill?
4. Approximate: What real mechanisms come closest to the fantasy?
5. Bridge: Design feasible solutions that capture the fantasy's essence
6. Validate: Ensure the bridge solutions address the original need
