The Problem
"Willpower and good intentions run out on busy days, and many of the most important parts of life are too complex to run on habits alone. Simple systems make the important things happen anyway, and give back time and calm."

Who it's for

The right fit

Designed for For any adult who feels stretched, scattered or stuck: workers, students, parents, carers, retirees and the self-employed; several tools also work for couples, families and households. It sits beside Begin and End Well, GrowWell4Life, From Drifting to Steering and Play Well.

Most of us do not lack good intentions; we lack simple structure that carries them on busy, imperfect days. A companion to Ben Meer's How to Be Good at Life, this course teaches five steps for building any system (see it, map it, set it up, check it, grow it) and applies them to habits, checklists and ninety-day projects across seven areas of life: where to focus, protecting one routine and pursuing one project, breaking goals down, making plans hold on hard days, shaping your surroundings, freeing time, checking progress kindly, and growing your systems as life changes.
