How you see your goals changes everything.

Issue 01 of the mortl Intentional Growth publication. Free. Yours now.

This is for anyone with a goal that genuinely matters to them.

Most people focus entirely on the goal.

Fewer stop to examine their relationship with it.

Perception is Performance is a free 31-page publication that gives you the science behind Challenge and Threat Appraisal - what it is, why it matters, and what to do with it.

Written for anyone working towards something that genuinely means something to them.

Extracts from ‘Perception is performance’.

  • "Not all goals create the same response in us. The ones that do (the ones that activate our minds and bodies in a meaningful way) are what performance psychologists call motivated performance goals".

  • "The fact that you're feeling something, be that pressure, excitement, uncertainty, resistance is evidence that this goal has meaning. That feeling isn't the problem. It's the signal".

  • "Challenge and Threat Appraisal is a psychophysiological model that explains how what you think or feel about a performance goal produces measurable changes in your body and how those bodily changes then influence your emotional state, thinking, behaviour and performance. Neither response is a character flaw. Both are human. Both only show up when you care. But understanding which you're in changes everything about how you move forward".

Want to go deeper with your own goals?

Alongside the publication, there's a free anonymous diagnostic built on the same performance science.

It takes five minutes, identifies whether you're currently approaching your goals from a place of resource or resistance and gives you a result that brings the science in the publication to life for your specific situation right now.

There are no right answers. Just useful ones.

What comes next is up to you.

The publication is the beginning.

The diagnostic goes deeper.
