Programs

Two ways to do this, and they are not the same size.

Six programs you walk on your own, entered wherever you actually are. Or twelve months with me. They cover the same six places a man gets stuck, and they are not two prices for one thing.

Free · seven mornings

The First Hour

Seven letters, one each morning. The phone, the water, the light, the coffee. It works before you have paid me anything, which is the point.

The Order

Six programs, each entered on its own. Capacity, Choice, Clarity, Honesty, the Maze, Independence. They are numbered because that is the order things usually come apart in, but yours may not have, so you start where you actually are.

Each one is a printed protocol, a bound logbook and one written instruction every morning. At the end of each you write a closing record, I read it myself, and I write you one page back by hand. That page opens the next step.

No calls. Nothing written for you personally. You choose the door; I read your application and say if you chose the wrong one.

The Year

One hour with me every week for fifty-two weeks, a two-hour session every month, daily messages, and two full days in the same room.

Nothing is printed in advance. The protocol is written from where you actually are and rewritten as you change. Two of the twelve months have no plan at all until we reach them.

Six people at a time. A place opens when someone finishes. It ends at month twelve and there is no second year.

Why one costs five times the other.

The six steps are what I can write down. The Year is what I cannot.

The six places are the same in both. What differs is not the map. It is that a printed programme cannot look at you.

In the steps, everything is decided before I know your name. That is honest and it works, because the order is right and most of what goes wrong goes wrong for the same reasons in most men. It will take you a long way and it costs a fraction of the year, because it is a fraction of the year — the part that fits on paper.

The rest does not fit on paper. Half of the year cannot be written in advance because it depends on who you have become by month eight, and I do not know that yet. The tests only work if you have not read about them. Months nine and ten have no plan at all — what we do there is decided by what you turned into. Month eleven goes wherever it goes, and I will not sell that to a man with nobody on the phone.

So they are not two sizes of the same thing. The steps are the road, printed. The Year is a man who has walked it, standing next to you, throwing the printed version away every time your ground does not match it.

The Order
The Year
Made for
Every man who enters that door. The same protocol, the same days.
You. Written from where you actually are, and rewritten as you change.
Where it starts
Wherever you decide, out of six. You pick, I confirm or redirect.
Wherever you actually are. I decide it after reading you, and it is different every time.
Who decides what you do next
The protocol, written before I met you.
Me, that week, having watched the last one.
When I see it going wrong
At the end, when I read your record. Week nineteen is already gone.
While week nineteen is happening.
Months 7–8 — the tests
Not in it, and cannot be. Reading about a test destroys it.
Chosen for you, unannounced, and they are most of what the year turns on.
The two months that decide it
The printed version.
No plan exists until we get there. It depends entirely on who you have become.
Month 11 — the maze
Bounded. It stops at the edge.
Wherever it needs to go, with me on the phone while it does.
Hours of my attention
About one. I read your record and write you a page.
Ninety, plus two full days in the same room.
What is measured
What you write in the Ledger.
The Ledger, and three full blood panels.
At the end
Your own protocol, printed and bound.
Your year, printed and bound — and the last point of it, which I do not describe anywhere.

If you are not sure, start with the free one.

Seven mornings costs nothing and tells you more about whether this is for you than anything I could write here.
