A structured goal-setting session to reflect on the past quarter and set clear, achievable goals for the next three months.
-
Review last quarter — Look back at the past 3 months. Use your calendar skill to surface major events and milestones. Ask the user what they accomplished, what they're proud of, and what fell through the cracks.
-
Identify themes — What areas of life matter most right now? Common buckets: career, health, relationships, finances, learning, personal projects, fun.
-
Set 3-5 goals — Work with the user to define goals for next quarter. Each goal should be:
- Specific enough to know when it's done
- Achievable in 3 months
- Something the user actually cares about (not just "should" do)
-
Define measurable outcomes — For each goal, set a clear finish line. "Get healthier" becomes "Exercise 3x/week for 12 weeks." "Save money" becomes "Save $1,500 by June 30."
-
Plan first steps — For each goal, identify one concrete action to take this week to get started.
