. WOOP process (Nick)
Getting kids to think in terms of if then, of action consequence, is just a useful life skill to have, like a useful thinking pattern to understand.

It (WOOP) is getting you to interrupt patterns of thought and interrupt negative scripts that students might have, where they might not think they could tackle those obstacles.

The WOOP toolkit for educators helps students set a goal (wish), and by visualizations, help them imagine an outcome and an obstacle, then plan for it.
 
WOOP for classrooms: https://characterlab.org/activities/woop-for-classrooms/ 
Wish: To be in much better shape in 3 months
Outcome: I will feel much more energetic throughout the day, productive. I will feel like I have more energy for my young kids. I will feel like I’m able to give more to people instead of reacting to things. Just feeling like more in control.
Obstacle: time, kids
Plan: I could wake up early, then I could schedule in 20 minutes at a time. I could have someone monitor my excuses.
