This Friday’s Forum: The 90-Day Myth — How HPS Adoption Actually Happens
There’s a story that has been circulating in the HPS community for at least 30 years.
You’ve heard it. A handful of highly successful practitioners who saw the light, dropped everything, implemented HPS in its entirety, and never looked back. Total transformation. Ninety days. Done.
It’s a great story.
It’s also not how it happened.
What actually happened — almost certainly — is that HPS gave those practitioners language and structure for things they were already doing intuitively. The fit felt immediate because they were already disqualifiers at heart (or at least primed for the shift). The “transformation” was more recognition than revolution. And the messy parts — the backsliding, the hybrid period, the old habits that came roaring back the first time quota and expectations pressure spiked — those got edited out in the retelling, because they don’t make for a clean narrative.
Thirty years later, that edited version has been converted into gospel.
And it does real damage.
Because when your adoption looks nothing like that — when you’re in the messy middle, running two approaches in parallel, defaulting to old patterns under stress — the myth tells you something is wrong with you. That you’re not committed enough. That you don’t get it.
You get it fine. You’re just human. And humans don’t change in 90 days. They change the way they actually change — nonlinearly, imperfectly, and over much longer than anyone’s highlight reel suggests.
This Friday, we’re burning down the origin myth.
We’ll talk about how HPS adoption actually unfolds, why the Hollywood version persists, and what a more honest — and ultimately more useful — story might look like.
This Friday’s Community Forum — “The 90-Day Myth: How HPS Adoption Actually Happens” The truth is less sexy. It’s also a lot more helpful.
