Stuck-Pattern Diagnostic Lesson — Why You're Not Moving

What it does

• Stuck-pattern hero — opens by naming the feeling (trapped in something good) and validating it
• Four trap audits — short audits for the comfort trap, money trap, identity trap, and sunk-cost trap
• Score-and-reflect strip — each audit gives a 1-5 score and a one-line interpretation of where the trap pulls strongest
• Hidden-cost calculator — a short block that estimates the long-term cost of staying versus the short-term cost of leaving
• Freedom-map worksheet — a closing worksheet where students name what they'd do if all four traps disappeared tomorrow
• One-decision close — a final card asking students to pick the smallest move they could make this week to test their map

Best use cases

• Career and professional coaching — diagnosing why high-earners stay in jobs they've outgrown
• Business and entrepreneurship — diagnosing why founders stay attached to a stalled business
• Personal finance — diagnosing money beliefs that keep students stuck in scarcity or hoarding
• Relationship and life coaching — diagnosing why students stay in roles, groups, or commitments they've outgrown
• Health and habit change — diagnosing the comfort patterns that stall meaningful behavior change

What you can change with your DNA

When you run this through the remix skill, your CCOS DNA — brand, voice, audience — drives these decisions automatically:

• Colors — slots for page background, four trap-section accents (one per trap), audit-card surface, calculator block, and the freedom-map worksheet
• Fonts — a confident display font for the trap names and headline numbers, and a clean body font for the audits and worksheet text
• Copy — opening hero, four trap descriptions, audit questions and interpretations, hidden-cost calculator labels, freedom-map prompts, and the one-decision close
• Images — optional metaphor illustrations or icons for each trap, plus any imagery in the hero
• Behavior — toggle whether scores save between sessions, whether the freedom-map saves student answers, and whether the lesson exports as a PDF diagnostic
