Effort isn’t your problem. Readiness is.
People set meaningful goals all the time. Many of them stall, and the usual explanation is motivation. The research says otherwise. Whether a goal succeeds depends on how clear it is, how much it matters to you, what else is competing for your attention, and what is happening in the rest of your life.
The Goal Readiness Profile measures those conditions around one specific goal you choose. You walk away knowing where you’re supported, where to watch, and where something has to change before you push harder.
Read your results at a glance
Four signals tell you where to focus.
Every area of your report carries one of four signals, so you can see what is working and what needs attention without wading through numbers.
This is working for you. Protect it and lean on it.

How it works
One goal. One assessment. A clear next move.
Name your goal
Choose the goal that matters most right now, at work or in life. Every question is about that goal, so your results are specific instead of general.
Take the assessment
Answer online in one sitting, including a few short reflections in your own words. There are no right answers, only accurate ones.

Your Individual Report shows your readiness zone, your signals, and practical moves for each area, ideally reviewed with a certified GRP coach.
Three reports
From a single snapshot to an ongoing practice.
Individual Report
Your readiness for one goal, the other goals competing for your time, and how the rest of your life is affecting your progress, with clear moves for each area.
Waypoint
A short monthly check-in on the same goal. See what has shifted, what’s still in the way, and whether you’re gaining ground.
Team Report
When a team rates its readiness for one shared goal, the lead sees where the team is strong, where it’s stretched, and what each person needs to grow.

Behind the GRP
Developed by Dr. Justin Carlton
Executive coach, consultant, and researcher with a doctorate focused on leadership identity development and published research in the International Journal of Evidence Based Coaching and Mentoring. Justin built the GRP after seeing capable, driven people stall on goals they were fully committed to. The GRP is now delivered by a growing network of certified coaches.
Set the bold goal. Then go after it ready.
