In our coaching relationship we're going to be very interested in taking action that's going to move you forward in your life.
Accordingly, we're going to map out specific action steps that will constitute you making progress toward things that are important to you, things that are within your power to actually complete in a timely manner.
Please
take a moment to brainstorm on how you'll make a strong habit of keeping up with your plans and ensuring your ability to execute on time.
In our coaching sessions, we're going to be distinguishing efforts that you can make in your real life to move you forward. Naturally, then, these are going to be efforts outside of what you habitually already make time for.
We're going to take as granted that anything we plan, you agree is WORTH DOING.
Given the assumption that your action plan will be worth doing, how much time per week do you see yourself being able to make to take action on that plan?
Please choose...0 - 1 hours1 - 2 hours2 - 4 hours4 - 6 hours6 - 8 hours8 hours or more{"type":"select","name":"__generic","width":100,"value":"","size":"Normal","validation":"N1","validationMessage":"Please indicate a rough ballpark of how many hours you see yourself able to devote to taking meaningful action.","options":"Please choose...\n0 - 1 hours\n1 - 2 hours\n2 - 4 hours\n4 - 6 hours\n6 - 8 hours\n8 hours or more"}
Based on that per-week estimate of hours, briefly describe where you think you'll be able to fit it into your schedule on a routine basis:
{"type":"textarea","name":"__generic2","width":100,"value":"","size":"Normal","validation":"NE","validationMessage":"Please describe how you'll fit in time for working on your action plans.","height":80,"placeholder":"Something like \"2 hours on Tuesday nights, and 3 hours on Saturday mornings.\" would be a specific enough plan."}
Based on that plan, briefly reflect on what sort of things are apt to get in the way of you having that time, and what strategies you can use to mitigate such things:
{"type":"textarea","name":"__generic3","width":100,"value":"","size":"Normal","validation":"NE","validationMessage":"Please reflect a bit on how you might manage when things come up.","height":80,"placeholder":"Life is complex and things come up. Having even a super basic plan to deal goes a long way. :)"}
Finally, what would support you in getting back on track when things go sideways?
{"type":"textarea","name":"__generic4","width":100,"value":"","size":"Normal","validation":"NE","validationMessage":"Please reflect a little on what might help when things get off track.","height":80,"placeholder":"Sooner or later they inevitably will. How can I help?"}
That's it! Great
brainstorming on this: having even a very basic plan will go a long way to ensure you're able to stay on track to get what you came for.
