Track What Actually Matters in Your Finances
Most people measure the wrong things when it comes to money. We'll show you how to focus on progress indicators that reveal genuine financial health—not just surface-level numbers that look impressive on paper.

Why Standard Metrics Often Mislead
Here's something you don't hear often enough: tracking your net worth every month can actually make your financial decisions worse. Same with obsessing over your savings rate without context.
These numbers tell you where you've been, but they're terrible at showing you where you're headed. And that's the part that matters when you're trying to build something sustainable.
We focus on leading indicators—the behaviours and patterns that predict future outcomes before they show up in your bank balance.
Think about it this way: your weight doesn't tell you whether your diet is working today. But tracking your daily food choices? That gives you immediate feedback you can actually use.
Financial progress works the same way. The programmes starting in September 2025 will walk you through identifying which metrics actually drive change in your situation—and how to measure them without turning your life into a spreadsheet.
Three Measurement Approaches That Work
We've built our curriculum around frameworks that people actually stick with. Not because they're simple, but because they're designed around how real decision-making happens.
Velocity Tracking
Forget static snapshots. Velocity tracking measures how quickly you're moving toward specific objectives. It catches problems early and rewards momentum, not perfection.
Ratio Analysis
Single numbers lie. Ratios tell stories. We'll teach you which relationships between financial factors actually predict stability versus which ones just look good on paper.
Constraint Mapping
This one's less common but incredibly practical. You'll learn to identify the bottlenecks limiting your progress and measure only what helps you remove them.
How This Actually Plays Out
Theory's fine, but let's talk about what these techniques look like when someone uses them for six months. Not in a perfect scenario—in regular life with all the complications that come with it.
Career Transition Planning
One of our 2024 participants was considering a job change that would mean a temporary income drop. Standard advice would focus on emergency funds and expense ratios.
Instead, we helped him map out recovery velocity—how quickly he could rebuild financial margin based on the new role's growth trajectory. Changed the entire decision framework.
Investment Behaviour
Another person came in wanting to "optimize portfolio allocation." After two weeks of tracking her actual decision patterns, we discovered that timing anxiety was costing her more than any allocation inefficiency.
She's now measuring emotional response cycles instead of chasing optimal percentages. Returns improved naturally once behaviour stabilized.
Learning Structure
Our autumn 2025 programmes run for twelve weeks. Each phase builds on measurement skills from the previous one, but you're not locked into rigid sequences.
Most participants find their rhythm by week four and start applying techniques before they've "finished" the curriculum.
Foundation
Identify what you're actually measuring now and why most of it isn't helping.
Framework Selection
Choose measurement approaches that match your specific financial situation and goals.
Implementation
Build tracking systems that work with your existing routines, not against them.
Refinement
Adjust based on what's actually working in practice versus what looked good in theory.
Next Intake: September 2025
Registration opens in July. Classes are deliberately small because the measurement techniques require personalized calibration.

I spent two years tracking everything—expenses, income, net worth, investment performance. Had beautiful spreadsheets. Still felt like I was guessing at every decision.
The constraint mapping module changed that completely. Once I could see where my progress was actually bottlenecked, the path forward became obvious. And I stopped wasting time measuring things that didn't matter.
