How it works

A simple loop that mirrors your data model, so the system stays clear and doable.

1. Create a 12 week cycle

Define the start date and intention that set the tone for the sprint.

2. Add goals that matter

Set clear success criteria so you know when a goal is done.

3. Turn goals into commitments

Break goals into small weekly actions you can actually check off.

4. Track and review weekly

Score execution, spot trends, and adjust your next week.

This is the whole system. No extra fluff.
