WOOP closes it with two evidence-backed moves: contrast the desired outcome against the obstacle in your way, then pre-bind an if-then response. Wish (specific, challenging, feasible), Outcome (vividly imagine the best result), Obstacle (the main internal obstacle in yourself), Plan (if [obstacle or its cue], then [action]). The output is a **WOOP card**. Critical: imagining the outcome *without* contrasting the obstacle measurably reduces follow-through - the obstacle and the if-then plan are mandatory, not decoration. ## When to Use - A goal is already chosen and feasible, but follow-through keeps failing. - Closing a personal or single-owner intention-action gap. - Turning a commitment into something that survives the moment of temptation or friction. ## When NOT to Use - To decide *what* to pursue (use a decision skill); WOOP commits to an already-chosen wish. - For multi-person project planning (it is about one actor's follow-through). - When the obstacle is an external blocker outside your control (WOOP works on internal obstacles). - As motivational positive-outcome talk: outcome-only, without the obstacle, backfires. ## Instructions When asked to run WOOP, follow these steps: 1. **Wish.** State the goal in one line.
