Quick answer
Turn a vague intention into a Goal, Outcome, Action and Plan sheet with milestones, measures and a first-week commitment a coach can review.
Clients leave sessions inspired and return having done nothing, because the goal never became a plan. This worksheet forces the four layers apart: the Goal as stated, the Outcome that would prove it, the Actions that produce the outcome, and the Plan with dates, measures and obstacles. Each layer is written small enough to act on this week, and the finished sheet is the artifact both sides review at the next session.
