Present, Goals
& Ideal Day

Goal Setting Tools

Three prompts that move from current state through annual goals
to a fully imagined ideal day.

Where This Tool Helps

These three prompts form a useful arc: where you are physically right now, what you want to accomplish over the next year, and what a perfect day actually looks like in concrete detail. Together they can connect present experience, goal scope, and an imagined day; they are coaching prompts, not a health assessment.

The ideal-day prompt invites concrete detail about activities, people, pace, and attention. Compare that description with the current day and choose whichever difference feels useful to explore.

These prompts work best as pre-session preparation or as a first-session intake exercise.

How to Use This Worksheet

  1. Start with the present-moment physical awareness prompt if it feels useful; skip it if body-focused reflection is uncomfortable. Ground the reflection before moving to longer-range thinking.
  2. For the goals prompt, write all goals that come to mind - big and small - without editing. Include small goals as well as large ones so the list reflects different kinds of priorities.
  3. For the ideal day, write as specifically as possible. What time do you wake up? What’s the quality of your morning? What work are you doing and how? What are your interactions like? What does the end of the day feel like?
  4. Complete all three prompts before reviewing any of them. Read all three together, then note any connection or tension that matters to you.
  5. Bring this to your next session as intake material.
