Purpose: Adjust a goal that stopped fitting your life, instead of dropping it altogether.
When to use: Use this when you are close to giving up on something you still care about.
Worksheet prompts
- What is the goal, and what does it ask of you right now?
- What has changed since you set it?
Time, health, money, people, work. - What is the smallest version of this goal that would still count to you?
- Write the smaller version here, and the date you will look at it again.
Shrinking a goal keeps it alive. You can grow it again when there is more room.
