1.    It’s New Year’s Eve, and you’re thinking about the year ahead. What’s your approach?
A) Write down clear, detailed goals and map out a plan to achieve them
B) Set a few goals but leave room for adjustments as life unfolds
C) I don’t make resolutions—I’ll change things when it feels right, not because it’s January
D) Roll my eyes at the idea of resolutions—they’re not for me

2.    You’ve started working on a goal, but a setback throws your plan off course. What do you do next?
A) Reassess my strategy and create a new plan to stay on track
B) Adapt to the situation and adjust the goal to fit the circumstances
C) Take a break and wait for the right time to come back to it
D) Move on — if it didn’t work, it wasn’t meant to be

3.    You’re scrolling social media and see others sharing their big resolutions. How do you feel?
A) Inspired - it motivates me to focus on my own goals
B) Curious - I like to see what others are doing but know my journey is my own
C) Unbothered - I’m focused on the goals I’ve already set for myself, no matter the timing
D) Annoyed - why does everyone feel the need to change themselves?

4.    When do you ever think about your life and its next stages?
A) At the start of the year to prepare for the next
B) Regularly throughout the year, especially during milestones
C) Whenever I feel like it—why wait for a specific time?
D) When I’m travelling or somewhere out of my usual comfort zone

5.    You’re in the middle of the year, and a new opportunity arises that wasn’t part of your plan. What do you do?
A) Evaluate how it fits into my existing goals and adjust if necessary
B) Embrace it and tweak my goals to include this new direction
C) Jump on it — it’s a great chance to improve right now!
D) Ignore it — I don’t feel the need to chase opportunities

6.    Uh-oh, halfway through January you’re having trouble with your resolutions. What’s your next move?
A) Break my goals into smaller, more manageable steps
B) Reassess and decide which goals to prioritise or modify
C) Pause and take a breather—it’s not the end of the world
D) Let them go — life’s too short to stress over resolutions
