5-Minute Readiness Assessment

Answer Honestly. No One's Judging You.

This assessment only works if you're completely honest about where you really are. Not where you wish you were. Not where you tell people you are. Where you actually are.

15 questions. 5 minutes. Your results are instant and confidential.

How would you describe your current ability to work? *

I'm functioning at full capacity; sharp, focused, productive

I'm managing, but it takes more effort than it used to. Tasks that were easy now feel harder.

I'm significantly struggling. My performance has dropped noticeably. I'm missing deadlines, avoiding calls, and making mistakes.

I can barely function. Work feels impossible. I'm paralyzed, avoiding everything, watching it all pile up.

How clear is your thinking on a daily basis? *

Sharp and focused most of the time. I can think clearly, make decisions confidently.

Occasional brain fog, but I can push through it. Some days are harder than others.

Frequent brain fog. It's hard to concentrate, make decisions, or remember things. I feel slow and stupid.

Severe brain fog. I can't think clearly at all. I read things multiple times and don't absorb them. I forget the conversations I had yesterday.

How would you describe your sleep over the past month? *

Sleeping well; 7-8 hours consistently, waking up refreshed.

Some disrupted sleep, but mostly okay. Occasional nights where I can't fall asleep or wake up tired.

Frequently disrupted. I wake up multiple times, can't fall back asleep, or wake up exhausted.

Severe sleep deprivation. I'm barely sleeping at all. Either can't fall asleep, wake up at 3am with racing thoughts, or sleep too much and still feel exhausted.

In the past 30 days, how have you been managing stress? *

Healthy habits; exercise, meditation, good nutrition, social support.

Mix of healthy and occasional unhealthy habits. Sometimes I drink more than I should or avoid dealing with things.

Relying heavily on alcohol, substances, or escapist behaviors. I'm drinking most nights, using substances on weekends, or numbing out with screens and distractions.

Heavily dependent on alcohol, drugs, gambling, porn, or other destructive patterns just to get through the day. It's not fun anymore; it's survival.

How would you describe your emotional state right now? *

Stable, grounded, and positive most days. I feel emotionally balanced.

Some ups and downs, but generally manageable. I have bad days but they pass.

Frequently anxious, depressed, or emotionally overwhelmed. I cry easily, snap at people, or feel numb.

Constant emotional turmoil. I feel completely out of control; rage, despair, panic, or total numbness. I don't feel like myself.

Has something significant happened recently that triggered your current state? *

No significant trigger. I'm just looking to optimize and grow.

Minor stressor, but I'm managing. Nothing major.

Yes, something significant happened; a loss, betrayal, health crisis, relationship breakdown and I'm struggling to cope.

Yes, a major crisis occurred and it knocked me completely off balance. I'm in full survival mode and can't bounce back.

How are your personal and professional relationships right now? *

Strong and supportive. My relationships are healthy and fulfilling.

Mostly good, with some tension. There's stress but nothing breaking.

Strained. I'm pulling away from people, avoiding conversations, snapping at loved ones. Relationships are deteriorating.

Collapsing. I'm pushing everyone away. My partner is threatening to leave. My team is walking on eggshells. My kids are scared. I'm completely isolating myself.

Are you noticing self-destructive patterns or behaviors right now? *

No, I'm in a healthy place. My habits are positive and sustainable.

Occasional slip-ups, but nothing serious. I catch myself and course-correct.

Yes, I'm slipping back into old patterns; drinking more, isolating, avoiding responsibilities, lying about how I'm doing.

Yes, and they're spiraling out of control. I'm doing things I swore I'd never do again. I'm lying to everyone. I'm scared of where this is heading.

Have you done personal development, therapy, or coaching before? *

No, I'm new to this world.

Yes, and it's been helpful. I'm looking to go deeper and continue growing.

Yes, and what worked before isn't working now. I'm more dysregulated than ever and nothing is helping.

Yes, and I've tried everything; therapy, meditation, books, coaches, retreats. Nothing is working. I'm desperate.

How urgent is your need for support? *

Not urgent. I'm exploring options for growth and optimization.

Somewhat urgent. I want to address this in the next few months before it gets worse.

Very urgent. I need help within the next few weeks. Things are declining fast.

Have you experienced suicidal thoughts, self-harm ideation, or thoughts of "not wanting to be here anymore"? *

No, not at all. I'm mentally stable.

Fleeting thoughts, but not serious. Just "I wish I could escape" moments.

Yes, occasionally and it concerns me. I've thought about it more than once.

Yes, frequently. It feels overwhelming. I've thought about how I would do it. I'm scared of where my mind goes.

Do you feel like you're constantly in fight-or-flight mode? *

No, I feel calm and regulated most of the time. I can relax and be present.

Sometimes, but I can usually calm myself down with breathing, meditation, or other tools.

Yes, most days I feel anxious, on edge, tense, or wired. I can't seem to relax even when there's no threat.

If you were to work with a coach, how committed would you be to doing the deep work required to transform? *

I'd dip my toes in and see how it goes. No major commitment yet.

I'm open and willing to try. I'd give it an honest effort.

I'm ready to fully commit and do the work. I know change requires effort.

I'm all in. I'll do whatever it takes to change. I'm desperate and ready to go deep.
