📋 Describe the SmartBlock

This SmartBlock is very similar to the Next Action Algorithm published by @lukaskawerau in #52. The only difference is that this workflow will enable you to select your choices using the buttons rather than typing "yes" or "no"

✅ Describe any prerequisites or dependencies that are required for this SmartBlock

💡 Additional Info

There are some newline kinks and button-related bugs that are being worked out. But wanted to get it in here for others to riff on. I will update it as it gets fixed.

Edit 1: Fixed some new line issues.

Edit 2: All issues are fixed. Push it to prod!

Edit 3: The workflow will now always create a TODO for the "Next Action" entered as well as create an additional TODO tagged with #blocking and a linked reference as alias to the original "Next Action" TODO.

The button enables you to continue adding TODO items tagged with #blocking and a link to the original TODO
