Understanding Your Assessment

What does your assessment reveal?

Interpreting Your Score

80%+ complete (29+ items): You’ve genuinely integrated Level 1. The foundation is solid. The practices are part of your functioning. You’re ready for Level 2.

60-80% complete (22-28 items): Good progress, but gaps remain. Some areas have integrated, others haven’t. Review the incomplete areas. Consider spending 2-4 more weeks strengthening before Level 2.

40-60% complete (15-21 items): Significant gaps. Some things are working, others aren’t. You may have tried to go too fast, or some practices didn’t fit. Focus on your essential practices. Consider extending Level 1 until more solidly integrated.

Below 40% (under 15 items): The foundation isn’t yet established. This isn’t failure - it’s information. Either the practices didn’t fit, the pacing was too fast, or something got in the way. Review what happened. Consider starting Level 1 fresh with better understanding of what works for you.

Common Patterns

Strong on some areas, weak on others: Normal. Most people have strengths and weaknesses. The weak areas might need focused attention, or might need different approaches.

Did it all but nothing stuck: You might have rushed through without integration. Quality beats quantity. Better to deeply integrate a few practices than superficially touch all of them.

Started strong, faded: Motivation-dependent practices don’t last. Design your routine for low-motivation days, not high-motivation days.

One area tanked everything: Sometimes one failing area (like health or crisis) prevents everything else. Address that area first.

What Incomplete Means

If something is incomplete, ask:

• Did I try this practice enough times?
• Was this practice a poor fit for my life/style?
• Did something get in the way (crisis, circumstance)?
• Did I understand the practice correctly?
• Do I need more time, or a different approach?

Incomplete isn’t failure. It’s feedback. Use it to adjust your approach.

Today’s Practice

For each area that needs more work, write:

• What specifically is incomplete?
• Why do I think it’s incomplete?
• What would make it more complete?

This analysis helps you decide: continue Level 1 work, or proceed to Level 2 while maintaining awareness of gaps.
