1)  Awareness & Perceptions (Reality  Check):  

What are the qualities the EP want to developand the behaviors that they want to change, and then structure this change as a goal in their personal development plan.

Make sure that this is a SMART goal:Specific,  Measurable,  A:ainable,  Realis<c,  and  Time-­‐bound.  

2) Scenarions & Perspectives(Goals):  

Once the EP have explored the current reality, it's time to determine what is possible – meaning all of the possible options for reaching their objective.

3) Possibilities & Alternatives(Solu<ons):  

The final step is to get the EP to commit to specific actions in order to move forward towards their goal.

In doing this, you will help the EP establish his will and boost her motivation.
