Guided ManoYatra tool

WOOP

WOOP is a four-step method — Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan — in which you imagine the desired outcome and then deliberately confront the internal obstacle, finishing with a specific if-then plan.

How it works

The obstacle step is what separates this from ordinary goal-setting, and it is why the method holds up: purely positive visualisation tends to reduce follow-through, because imagining success delivers some of its satisfaction in advance. Naming the internal obstacle — not the external circumstance — and attaching an if-then response is where the effect sits.
