Etymology
The word progression comes from the Latin parts pro- 'forward' and grad/gress 'step', just like in progress and graduate. It helps to imagine moving forward one step at a time, as in a career, a parade moving down a street, or a patient getting better. So a progression is the process of developing or advancing toward a goal.
