Please take a moment to understand what Waypoint is — and what it isn’t.
What Waypoint is
A personal self-management tool for tracking values-based goals and behaviors. Inspired by principles from Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), designed for everyday self-improvement.
What Waypoint is NOT
Not a clinical tool. Not a substitute for professional mental health, behavioral health, or medical services. Not therapy. Functional assessment results are informal self-report hypotheses — not clinical diagnoses.
Recommended use
Best used alongside — not instead of — professional guidance. If you work with a BCBA, therapist, or counselor, Waypoint can complement that work. In crisis? Call or text 988.
Crisis support: call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or go to your nearest emergency room.

⚠ Link at least one value — Waypoint goals are values-based.
Reinforcer contracting — define your reward before you earn it.
Quick quality check:
✔ Would this actually motivate you this week, not just in theory?
✔ Is it specific enough that you’d know when you’ve earned it?
✔ Will you only get it after hitting the goal — not before?
Add Behavior
Something you do and can log the moment you finish.
If-then plans double follow-through by linking the behavior to a specific cue. Name the trigger, then the action.
Increase: more is better. Decrease: cutting back, stay at or under your number.
Log every one, even on a rough day.
Behaviors can have more than one function. Choose the one you think is driving it most, and note others in your FA summary.
