LifeProgress guide

How it works

Understand where you want to go, which skills you need and what to do today. LifeProgress brings your goals, skills and everyday actions together in one development map.

Create your profile
  1. Life areasWhere outcomes matter
  2. GoalsWhere I want to go
  3. SkillsWhat I need to develop
  4. Plans and stepsWhat I do in practice
  5. Assessing the outcomeWhat changed and what comes next

Step 1

Start with an introduction

The assistant asks about your experience, activities, interests and desired outcomes. Describe what you do, what you already know, what you find difficult and what you want to achieve. You can paste your CV or a description of yourself.

  1. Open “Assistant” and start the introduction.
  2. Answer in your own words. Selecting a suggestion only fills the field; you can edit the text and use “Send” to submit it.
  3. Review the proposed draft: life areas, skills, levels and goals. Accept what fits, correct inaccuracies or reject anything unnecessary.
  4. When creating your portrait, choose a gender and a style with a visual preview. A photo is optional: upload one if you want your face to serve as a reference for the illustration.

The draft is a starting point. If you prefer to skip the interview, start by adding goals and skills manually. You can expand your profile later.

Step 2

Choose an outcome: your goal

A goal answers “What outcome do I want to achieve?” Phrase it so you can later tell whether you have achieved it. For example, replace “Get better at speaking” with “Give a public talk to 20 people”.

  1. In “Goals”, select “Set a goal”.
  2. Choose a time horizon: a short-term goal is up to three months away; a long-term goal is from three months to several years away.
  3. Add a life area and deadline if needed.
  4. Add the skills that will help and the level you need for each. You can update the list later.

Practical tip: start with one important goal and add others as things become clearer. A long-term goal gives direction; a short-term goal helps you choose a specific outcome for the current period.

Step 3

Identify the skills you need

A skill is something you can do or want to learn. It has a current level, a note and, where needed, subskills. For example, “Public speaking” can be broken down into structuring a talk and rehearsing its delivery.

Core qualities
These help across different activities: learning to learn, self-awareness and understanding others. In the platform model, this is the existential layer.
Transferable skills
These apply across several life areas: planning, negotiation and working with information. This is the cross-contextual layer.
Area-specific skills
These relate to a particular field: product design at work or running technique in health. This is the contextual layer.

Behavioral assessment of core qualities

Core qualities are assessed through actions and context. Record specific cases and confirm the level. Previous Bloom assessments remain in the history and need reassessment.

  1. With supportYou act with prompts or by discussing the situation together
  2. In familiar situationsYou act independently in familiar situations
  3. Consistently independentYou repeat the action regularly and return to it after setbacks
  4. In challenging situationsYou maintain effective action under pressure, conflict or uncertainty
  5. Flexible across situationsYou adapt your approach, recognize its limits and revise your strategy

Levels for transferable and area-specific skills

  1. UnderstandingI can explain the main concepts and how it works.
  2. ApplyingI can do it independently using an example or instructions.
  3. AnalyzingI understand the reasons, find mistakes and choose a suitable approach.
  4. EvaluatingI compare options and explain my choice.
  5. CreatingI create my own solutions and can teach the approach to others.

“Not assessed” means no level has been assigned yet. It is not level zero. Assess yourself using examples from actual practice, and record observations in the skill note. Completing a step does not itself increase your level; you confirm the new assessment.

Star the skills you are working on now: they will appear under “In focus”. A practical guideline is 3–5 skills at a time. The star indicates your attention; the level required for a specific goal is set separately within that goal.

Step 4

Read your development map

At the top of your profile, the “Development map” shows all active goals together. Each goal has all its steps underneath, followed by the less prominent “Skills to develop”. You can hide them with the “Show skills” switch. Standalone steps are grouped separately. Search finds a goal or step, the life area filter keeps goals from that area, and the status filter shows achieved or paused goals.

One action can support several goals; for example, a blog can develop a product and support course sales. It is marked “Shared step” and links to the other goals. It is a single action with shared completion: checking it off updates every branch. The “Links” button lets you change the goals linked to an existing step.

Check off one-time steps directly on the map. Regular practice can be marked as done today only in the current week; steps for inactive goals are available to view. The bar below a goal shows completed steps, while overall goal progress, including skills, is shown in the goal card.

On desktop, the section menu stays on the left, with “Appearance” at the bottom. On a phone, open sections with the “Sections” button in the header. Below the portrait, links with goal, step and skill counts open the corresponding sections. A shared step is counted once. The “Share” button is also in the portrait card.

  • Goal — your desired outcome. Select its name to open details and overall progress.
  • Steps — real actions linked to the goal. Select the text to open plans, or use the checkbox beside it to record completion.
  • Skills to develop — skills with current and target levels. Select one to open its skill card.

A line on the map represents a recorded link. The platform does not block skill development or require you to “unlock” other branches first. If a branch has no steps, select “Add a step”: the goal will already be selected in the form.

One example path

Goal: give a talk → skill: public speaking, from “Applying” to “Analyzing” → step: record and review a five-minute rehearsal → outcome: mark it as done and check what improved.

Step 5

Turn intention into a plan

A step is a specific action with a clear point of completion. “Have one conversation with a customer” is more useful in a plan than “Develop sales”. Choose an amount of work you can realistically complete.

  1. In “Plans”, select “Add a step” or open it from a map branch.
  2. Enter the action, choose one or more goals and optionally a skill. You can also create a standalone step without these. Change the links of an existing step using “⋯ → Step goals”.
  3. Choose “Today”, “Another day”, “This week” or “No deadline” if you are not ready to set a date.
  4. Set the priority: high, normal or low. A step’s priority is independent of the goal’s priority and does not change its date.
  5. For regular practice, choose a week, enable “Repeat” and set the number of completions per week.
  6. After completing the action, check it off in the plan. For a recurring step, completion is recorded per day; checking it again on the same day does not add another completion.

Find one-time steps assigned to a week in the weekly view. Unfinished one-time steps from the past remain under “Previously unfinished”: you can complete them, reschedule them using “⋯”, or delete them if they are no longer useful.

Switch between “Today”, “This week” and “This month”. The arrows show the previous or next period, the date picker lets you jump further, and “Current week” or “Current month” returns to the current period. The selected view and date are saved in the page address.

The “No deadline” tab stores steps without a date or week. They do not become overdue. The step menu lets you change priority, assign a date, move a step to the following week or remove the deadline from a one-time step. Lists show unfinished steps first, then completed ones; within each group, higher-priority steps come first.

Goals also have a priority, set when creating or editing them. On the development map and under “Skills to develop” on the goal page, “Add a skill” links an existing skill to the goal and sets its target level. Use “⋯ Skill” to change the target level or unlink the skill. The skill itself, its level and its steps are kept; steps for an unlinked skill remain under “Other steps toward this goal” on the map.

In the monthly calendar, select a day to open its week. Below the calendar, steps are grouped by week; practice without a specific day is shown separately, including weeks spanning two months. A new step form uses the date or week of the period being viewed. If the form is already open, navigation preserves its draft and the period selected when it was opened.

You can view regular-practice completion counts for past and future weeks. Marking completion for today is available only in the current week. Moving a future step “to next week” is calculated from its assigned week; for an overdue step in the daily plan, it is calculated from the current week.

Recurring practice uses the target for its own week. A past week does not become an overdue recurring step. To continue practising, move it to the following week or create a new step.

Step 6

Goal progress and status are two different measures

Progress is calculated from two parts: the share of completed goal steps and the share of skills that have reached their target level. If both parts are defined, their average is used. If there are only steps or only skills, only that part is counted. With neither steps nor skills, progress is 0%.

How the percentage is calculated

3 of 4 steps completed: 75%. 1 of 2 skills at the target level: 50%. Goal progress: (75% + 50%) ÷ 2 = 62.5%, rounded to 63%.

A recurring step counts as completed when its weekly target is met. Adding steps or changing a skill’s target level can change the percentage: it reflects the goal’s current contents.

Active
You are currently working toward the outcome. Active goals are available on the development map.
Achieved
You have confirmed that the desired outcome has been achieved. You make this decision.
Paused
You have put the goal on hold. Find it using the paused-goals filter and make it active again.

The current status is shown in the goal card and highlighted among the buttons. To change it, select the relevant button. Reaching 100% progress does not change the status automatically: check the actual outcome and mark the goal achieved yourself. Changing status does not delete its skills or steps.

Step 7

Keep your life areas in balance

Life areas group skills and goals by parts of your life. You can add work and creative areas to suit your needs. “Health” and “People” are permanent areas: they always remain in the balance and cannot be hidden or deleted.

  • Health: physical activity, sports and healthy eating.
  • People: family, friends and valuable connections.

The radar shows the average level of assessed skills in each area. The calculation includes the area’s main skills and linked transferable skills; subskills and core qualities are not counted again. If no skills have been assessed, there is not yet enough data to assess the area.

This is a skill map, not an assessment of your health or relationship quality. Notice which areas receive your attention and plan manageable regular practice. You do not have to turn every area into a major project.

Step 8

Work with the assistant as a helper

The assistant helps you build a profile, discuss a difficulty, break a goal into actions and review what has changed. For example: “Help me choose a small step for this goal” or “I did two rehearsals this week. What should I check in the skill?”

  • In a goal card, you can start “Break into steps with the assistant”.
  • Invitations to a short check-in may appear on the home screen: discuss what you completed, any difficulties and the next period.
  • Suggestions to change data require your decision. Review the wording, links and assessment before accepting.
  • On desktop, your remaining message allowance is visible in the header. Conversations and reviews use assistant messages; portraits have separate limits, shown when creating them.

AI can make mistakes. Your facts and experience matter more than a suggested assessment. If a suggestion does not fit, reject it and explain more precisely. Manual goals, skills and plans remain available regardless of whether you use AI.

AI features use the data-transfer permission described in the registration documents. You can check or withdraw it in account settings. There is separate permission for an optional photo before creating a portrait.

Step 9

Repeat a simple cycle

At the start of the day

Open the map. Choose an important goal, check the suggested next action and take one manageable step. Add it to today’s plan if needed.

After practice

Check off what you completed in the plan. In the skill note, record what worked, where you needed help and the result you achieved. If you can do more now, reassess your level.

Once a week

Review completed and remaining steps. Reschedule what still matters, remove what you no longer need, and check target levels and goal statuses. Remember health and people, even if work currently takes most of your attention.

When your direction changes

Update the goal, deadline, required skills and their levels. You can pause the old goal. The map updates from your data; you do not need to continue an old plan just for the percentage.

Choose an action for today →

Step 10

Manage your data and access

Your profile is visible only to you by default. “Share” on the home screen lets you enable viewing by link and choose what is available. Check the settings before sending the link; you can revoke access.

In settings, you can change appearance and account details, export your data as JSON or delete your account after confirmation. An export can be imported into an empty profile with no personal skills, goals or additional life areas; the permanent “Health” and “People” areas do not prevent import.

In “Appearance”, choose the interface style, color theme and light, dark or system mode independently. Available styles are “Classic”, a simple interface, and “Chronicles”, a fantasy atlas. Your choice is saved in your profile. The previous “Constellation” and “Facets” styles are replaced with Classic, while the palette and mode are kept.

Below the portrait, you can add a personal guiding statement: a favorite quote, life goal or motivation. You choose the type and text; leaving the text empty removes the block. It is saved in your profile and export, but is not shown through the public link.

Data processing is explained in the personal data processing policy and consent document.
