Upgrade your entire life

Create a strategic life plan, then systematically execute it with your UP Team

UP INSIGHT

You have approximately 700,000 hours to live. Assuming $100/hour, that’s $70 million. How wisely are you spending that?

The Upgrade Program

The Upgrade Program (UP) is an experimental program that uses emerging technology, behavioral science, and applied rationality to help you set, plan, and plausibly achieve your life goals. It’s a systematic way to upgrade every area of your life, in rank order of your values, with an ultimate aim of human flourishing.

UP is like a head-to-toe, inside-and-out life makeover.  

Each UP is custom-designed around you, but in general they usually consist of 1,000+ steps performed by you and your UP Team and run 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 10 years or 100 years. UP is not a coaching program, course, or training – it is something wholly different.

What’s UP?

UP STEP #1

Epistemic Housekeeping

You don’t know what you don’t know. And much of what you “know” is actually wrong. Start by rethinking your life from first principles.

UP STEP #2

Model Your Priorities

Out of trillions of possible actions, what should you do right now? To answer that, build a quantitative model of your values.

UP STEP #3

Set Life Goals

Working from your values, determine your life goals and decide how much of your time, money, and other resources you’ll allocate to each.

UP STEP #4

Assess Yourself

What is your baseline success rate on your goals so far? Are you progressing, maintaining or regressing? Take hard data to find out.

UP STEP #5

Build a Personal Team

Self-development is an insufficient framing if you want maximal success in life. Also focus on your personal team’s development.

UP STEP #6

Plan Each Goal

Actually achieving your life goals is hard. To make it easier, create realistic, tailored, evidence-based plans for each goal.

UP STEP #7

Execute Plan with Team

Work with your team to do the thousands of discrete tasks necessary to realize your goals. The real “magic” is (strategic) hard work.

UP STEP #8

Analyze Results

Even with your team’s best efforts, many of your plans will fail. Dispassionately analyze the data and learn how to do better next time.

UP STEP #9

Iterate on Plans

Repeat the plan-experiment-learn process until you get it right. Trial and error is inevitable; the goal is to move quickly and cost-effectively.

UP STEP #10

Level Up

Once you’re reliably progressing on all of your life goals, you’ve reached what we call UP v2.0. Then things start to get really interesting…

Why do UP?

What if you had step-by-step, science-based plans outlining how to achieve all of your life goals, including becoming the person you most want to be? What if those plans included both you and a dedicated team of aligned experts and assistants getting paid if and only if you were successful?

Would you be more likely to achieve what’s most important to you?

Our research indicates yes.

What happens in an UP?

Instead of pursuing your dreams, instead consider executing your well-designed life plan.
