I recently came across the GROW model which I think complements my own RAGE model quite nicely when it comes to inspecting aspirations and goals. It's all about seeking clarity through questions:
Goal - What do you want? What's your desired outcomes (Aspirations)?
- What would you notice if you were performing in this area more proficiently?
- What would others notice if you were performing in this area more proficiently?
- What would be the benefits to your team / family / business / friends of you gaining proficiency in this area?
- What is the short- and long-term impact of you not enhancing in this area?
Reality - What's your current situation? Be brutally honest about current reality.
- What is the current state of your proficiency in this area?
- What have you done till date to develop proficiency in this area?
- What has helped your progress?
- What has held you back?
- How long have you been working on enhancing yourself in this area?
- Where do you feel stuck?
- What perceptions about yourself might be getting in your way?
- Are these perceptions accurate? How do you know?
Options - Exploring possibilities / Expectations. What could you do?
- What do you feel you need to gain proficiency in this area?
- What are the possible actions you can take to enhance yourself in this area?
- What else can you do? Probe deeper
- Now that you are aware of the possibilities, which one would you try first?
- What would you like to have happen?
- If you do nothing, what will be the impact?
- What does the wiser part of you tell you?
- If you were coaching someone on enhancing themselves in this area, what might you say to them?
- If there were no limitations/restrictions, what might you do?
- What options are within your control?
Will - What will you do? Commitment / Next Steps?
- What support do you need to be successful in your next steps?
- What obstacles do you anticipate? How will you navigate them?
- How might you motivate yourself when things get tough?
- Who might be able to help you in achieving your next steps?
