Yes / No / Maybe Reflection

ASSESSMENT & DISCOVERY TOOLS

Seven structured statements with a three-option response
to surface where you stand.

Yes / No / Maybe Reflection

A Yes, No, or Maybe response can preserve uncertainty when a client finds that format useful. A "Maybe" can preserve a question without implying that it is more meaningful — the places where someone knows the right answer in principle but hasn't fully committed to it in practice.

Use the format only when it fits the client's language and purpose; it is not a readiness, values, or behavior assessment. No response is automatically more informative than another. They mark the boundary between what someone has resolved and what they are still working through. A worksheet where half the responses are MAYBE is not a sign of indecision — it is a clear map of the current work.

The statements and response words are editable; no scoring or interpretation is required.

How to Use This Reflection

Write statements, not questions. "I delegate tasks I could do myself" lands differently than "Do you delegate?"
Use positive framing for the statements — they should describe a state the client either does or does not inhabit, not a problem to admit.
Use any pace and allow a response to change. First and later responses may differ; neither is diagnostic or automatically more accurate.
After completing all seven, return to every MAYBE. Ask: "What would need to be true for this to become a YES?"
Reuse the statements only if useful; a changed response does not measure progress or cause.

Choice and Support Boundary

Optional coaching reflection - not therapy, diagnosis, medical care, legal advice, or a validated assessment. Skip, adapt, or stop. Do not infer causes, conditions, traits, motives, or required responses. Use qualified or emergency support for unsafe, severe, or out-of-scope concerns.

After reviewing the responses you chose:

Which response, if any, raises a useful question or remains uncertain?
Pick one MAYBE. What would have to change — in your situation or in yourself — for it to become a YES?
Which response surprised you most?
