2. Clarify goals, obstacles and coaching needs.

Goal. What is the large purpose behind this task? Add it in the “Goal” field.

Obstacles. What obstacle(s) stand in your way—whether internal (”it’s boring”; “I can’t figure out where to start”) or external (”I don’t have a focused work window”; “I need to find the project brief”). Add these in the “Obstacle” field.

Coach. If you could hire any professional to help you with this task, who would you hire? This might be a book editor, a software programmer, a data analyst, a personal assistant with great attention to detail—you name it! Add this under “Ideal coach”.
