# Self-coaching: from a goal to one action | Coacha

Source: https://www.coacha.co/platform/coach/self-coaching

**Goals that turn into action.** A guide that takes a person from a goal to the step they will take next, then checks back. It was refined with thousands of coachees worldwide.

## A goal, the next step, and a check-in.

1. **Name the goal.** Start from a result, or from anything that matters to them.
2. **Test it.** Rate how important and realistic it is, and how ready they are, from 0 to 10.
3. **Choose one action.** The step that will most advance the goal in the next two weeks.
4. **Check back.** Done, partly or not yet, and how close they feel to the goal.

## A plan a person will follow.

A few of the guide's prompts, as people see them.

- **My goal**: "My goal is"
- **Benefits**: "Three benefits of achieving my goal"
- **Next action**: "In the next 2 weeks, 1 action I will take"
- **Obstacles**: "What might impede my goal, and how will I overcome it?"

## A plan they own.

Their goal, the next step, and how close they feel to it.

## Who answers and who reads

Written by the person. Read only by them.
