The Stuck-Loop Map
Take one recent moment when you intended to act and did something else. Describe what happened without assigning yourself a motive.
Use this with one real situation. The four prompts below match the printable worksheet.
You can write your answers on paper or use the PDF. Keep what you write; you do not have to send it anywhere.
Describe the moment
What did you intend to do? What happened instead?
Notice what came before
What was happening just before you changed course? Include time, place, interruptions, or uncertainty.
Choose an obstacle to change
What obstacle could you change? What remains outside your control?
Try another response
What will you try the next time this situation appears?
Try one action, then return to what happened. Adjust the next attempt using what you notice.
