Requirement

5. Four weeks of training, tracked as you go

Required

A plan built with your counselor, a record kept while it runs, a goal set at the start, and a conversation at the end. Four weeks is four weeks.

Warning. Four weeks is a calendar, not a task. It cannot be compressed and it cannot be started retrospectively, so it is usually the longest single thing on this plan. Set the goal in 5(c) at the beginning: a goal written at the end has nothing to measure against.

What this is made of

5(a). Build the four-week plan with your counselor
5(b). Track it while it happens
5(c). Set a goal before you start
5(d). At four weeks, talk about what changed
