Success framing

What useful progress looks like

A sustainable plan that names the subskill, practice conditions, feedback source, rest, and stop or adjustment rules.

Who this is for

Use this path as a young person or supportive adult for a small, age-appropriate learning experiment. Protect privacy and autonomy, follow school and service rules, and involve a trusted safe adult or qualified professional when wellbeing, access, bullying, abuse, self-harm, severe distress, or safety applies.
