» we‘re all trying to make progress with everything in our lives
» we make progress by integrating resources: skills, knowledge, tools, strength, wind, time, etc
» often we lack the resources to progress (the foundational progress hurdle, of 6)
» Progress Helpers have the resources we lack – they offer those as propositions to help make progress
» it is the uneven distribution of resources that drives us to exchange service (singular) – these exchanges are often indirect, and lubricated/mediated by service credits
» value emerges from progress comparisons; it needs recognising by a seeker for it to be meaningful to them (a process akin to revenue recognition in finance)
