Guiding insight: There are different learning levels we go through when being introduced to something new: 1. Heightening our awareness 2. Transferring knowledge to us 3. Influencing our attitudes and opinions (mind-sets) 4. Learning skills 5. Changing our behaviour

The ARTT of Progress™ supports you in moving through the learning levels 1, 2 and 3 through to 4 and 5

Guiding insight: “Knowing is not enough we must apply: willing is not enough we must do. To think is easy. To act is hard. But the hardest thing in the world is to act in accordance with your thinking.” Goethe. It is not enough to know something we need to do it – which is to live it

The ARTT of Progress™ encourages knowing, insight and doing. So you are able to learn, and apply content and concepts to your daily experience – at work, at home and in your whole life

Guiding insights: Memory of things learned relies on two things, our attention and our thinking about the material we are covering. We remember what we pay attention to and material that causes us to think, or reflect, increases our memory

The ARTT of progress™ supports you to connect with the content by assessing its significance for you, relating it to your reality and context, then choosing what action to take to help you and your situation

Guiding insight: Our brain stores different things in different places. Facts are stored in a different place from facts that have personal meaning. Things seen, heard, read, spoken, written and put into practice are all stored slightly differently

The ARTT of progress™ supports you by providing purposeful prompts to assess and relate content for personal meaning throughout each Progresslift (our name for Upskill chapters). Key concepts are repeated to build muscle memory and enhance both the variety and the number of places content and concepts are stored

Guiding insight: Our default as human beings is inertia – repeating what we most recently have done. Adopting a new way requires more effort than continuing to do what we’ve always done. Our brain is wired to be efficient – to conserve energy, so relying on our internal energy or willpower will not move us forward in the long-term

The ARTT of progress™ supports you to overcome inertia by providing purposeful prompts (non-negotiables) pre, during and post an activity and Upskill (our name for a course/masterclass)

Guiding insight: Working with the brain involves reducing the need for us to think in the moment, to reduce the energy required to adopt the new

The ARTT of progress™ supports you by taking you through the ARTT of progress™ as if discussing and completing the Upskill (our name for a course/masterclass) with the Progressfull™ Facilitator – the journey is defined so you can use your energy for personal insights

Guiding insight: Working with the brain involves deciding ahead what are showstoppers, what are non-negotiables, what are rules we will follow for our benefit (no different from "I will not leave the house until I have washed, dressed and cleaned my teeth!")

The ARTT of progress™ supports you by prompting decisions and insights in each Progresslift (our name for a masterclass chapter), and throughout the Upskill (our name for a course/masterclass), so when you reach the end of the Upskill many decisions have already been formed. Consolidation and choosing which to start with, is what the last Progresslift is about. It's all there for you

Guiding insight: Maintaining progress requires personal accountability and social support. ARTT supports personal accountability by introducing you to the concept of taking action during each Progresslift (our name for a masterclass chapter) and at the close of the Upskill (our name for a course/masterclass)

The ARTT of progress™ supports personal accountability by introducing you to the practice of purposeful self-reflection and taking stock during and post each Upskill. ARTT supports personal accountability by introducing you to the practice of having a focussed 121 with a Progressfull™ Mentor after each Upskill

ARTT provides social support throughout the Upskill, your journey feels like a 121 discussion with the Progressfull™ facilitator or Mentor. ARTT provides social support by introducing you to the concept of Peer Insights post each Upskill, creating a sense of community and “being in this together and progressing together”. ARTT provides social support by having a focussed 121 with a Progressfull™ Mentor after each Upskill

Guiding insight: Lasting change happens when there is a greater motivation and reward for changing than the reward received by repeating our present approach

The ARTT of progress™ helps you unlock your higher reward by encouraging you to decide how you want to change and how this will benefit you – at work, at home, and in your whole life. ARTT provides the structure and “how to’s” for this change, starting with the Progressfull™ Principles and Releasing Practices

Guiding insight: If we celebrate what we've already achieved, won't we stop progressing? Our brain focuses on what we “teach it” is important. Our emotional state and reactions to situations/events inform our brain what is important and thus what to “scan the environment for” in the future. If we don’t accurately review our progress and celebrate our achievements the brain will quickly discard these activities and over-focus on what still needs to be done, where we are falling short

The ARTT of progress™ supports accurate assessment of progress by introducing you to the concept of purposeful self-reflection daily, weekly and monthly. ARTT supports accurate assessment of progress through 121 Mentor sessions, Peer Insight sessions and 121 Coaching sessions. ARTT supports accurate assessment of progress through a purposeful self-reflection Journal

Guiding insight: Fear of failing, and not knowing how to bounce back from adversity and setback stops people from moving forward and being progressfull. Our brain is wired to “scan the environment” and is finely tuned to spot danger, then take control and place us in lockdown (fight, flight, freeze or fantasy takes over). Every “story” we tell ourselves about what is failure, and what is a threat, teaches the brain to continue to highjack us and restricts our ability to be progressfull

The ARTT of progress™ teaches you how to change the “story” you tell yourself to one that is more hopeful, more empowering about your resilience and ability to bounce back, enabling you to become progressfull. ARTT works with the brain by providing opportunities to write a new “story” about who you are, where your hope lies, what your capabilities are and how you can respond to adversity

Guiding insight: We turn short-term memory into long-term memory by rehearsing and recalling information repeatedly in bite-sized chunks. This can be accelerated by using spaced intervals (distributed practice) and enhanced further by adding surprise prompts. ARTT supports you to accelerate your learning as well as your ability to learn “long-term” by including displaced practice - breaking Progresslifts (our name for masterclass chapters) into smaller chunks and adding purposeful self-reflections at each stage in the Progresslift and Upskill (our name for course/masterclass)

The ARTT of progress™ supports your accelerated learning by adding surprise prompts during and post each Upskill

Guiding insight: When we set a timeframe as a non-negotiable our brain moves to a more “purposeful” mode which is high focus and high energy

The ARTT of progress™ supports you to build your bench-strength in performing and functioning in a high focus and high energy mode, by setting timeframes - throughout the Progresslifts and Upskill, we call the 10 minute timeframe Take 10. Take 10 for the ARTT of Progress™ supports you after the Upskill (our name for course/masterclass) by enabling you to easily incorporate an on-going practice of purposeful self-reflection into your life. This regular practice of Take 10 to reflect on your ARTT of Progress™, means you only need to find 10 minutes to benefit, discover new insights, master your actions and track your achievements
