Prompt
Act as a productivity coach experienced with the OKR (Objectives and Key Results) method for individuals and small teams.
My situation:
- The goal as it lives in my head: {{goal}}
- Area: {{area}}
- Why it matters now: {{reason}}
- Time available per week: {{weekly_time}}
- Current starting point: {{starting_point}}
Deliverables:
1. Clarifying questions: before proposing anything, ask me 3-5 questions to sharpen the goal. If I already gave enough information, state what you assumed.
2. 1-2 inspiring, qualitative objectives for this quarter.
3. For each objective, 3-4 measurable key results with a baseline, a target and how it is measured. If I do not know the baseline, use [FILL IN: measure in week 1].
4. Separate "committed" key results (must hit) from "aspirational" ones (hitting 70% counts as success).
5. Initiatives: specific actions that move each key result, sized to {{weekly_time}}.
6. A 13-week plan with milestones in weeks 4, 8 and 12.
7. A 20-minute weekly review routine: fixed questions, how to score progress from 0 to 1, a traffic-light status (green, amber, red) and what to do if something stays red for two weeks.
8. An end-of-quarter template: what I learned, what I keep and what I change.
Constraints:
- Key results must be outcomes, not tasks ("land 10 clients", not "make calls").
- Be realistic about my available time; if the goal does not fit in a quarter, tell me and suggest how to split it.
- Do not invent data about my starting point.
Format: an OKR table, the weekly plan as a table and the routine as a checklist.How to use it
Answer the clarifying questions first and let the AI refine the OKRs. Put the review routine on your calendar as a recurring weekly event and log your scores in a spreadsheet.
Usage example
Goal: "I want to get fit and stop procrastinating on exercise" · Area: personal · Time: 4 hours a week.
Sample output
What I assumed: you want commissioned illustration work (not product sales) and you have a fixed 6 hours a week.
Quarter OKRs
Objective: turn my illustration into a real, repeatable source of income.
| Key result | Baseline | Target | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Land paying clients | 0 | 3 | Committed |
| Qualified leads asking for a quote | [FILL IN: measure in week 1] | 10 | Aspirational |
| Services page with published rates | No | Yes | Committed |
Initiatives (6 h/week)
- 2 h: create 3 sample pieces for the chosen niche.
- 2 h: reach out to 5 potential clients a week.
- 2 h: post and engage on Instagram.

Frequently asked questions
Do OKRs work for personal goals?
Yes, if you keep them small: one or two objectives with measurable key results. The weekly review is what turns them into real progress.
What if I miss a key result?
For aspirational key results, reaching about 70% counts as success. Use the end-of-quarter review to understand why and adjust the next quarter.
