Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• My goal is something fuzzy like "work on my business" or "get healthier," so I’m always doing things toward it but I’d never actually know when I’d arrived
• I keep setting goals I think I’m supposed to want, and the moment they get hard I just quit
• I have a goal but no path to it, just a mountain of things I could do that all feel equally important
• When someone I’m coaching brings me a topic, we just end up circling it and venting
• I know exactly what I want and I’ve set the goal a dozen times, but I still don’t move
