Building Momentum, One Habit at a Time

Why I’m experimenting with daily logs and intentional priorities.

Ever feel like you’re making no progress — even though you’re working nonstop?

If you’re like me, you probably have weeks where you wonder:
Am I even making progress?

I’m testing out two new habits to change that!

#1 New Habit

I’m borrowing an idea from Chris Scott: keeping a daily running log (in ChatGPT) of tasks I accomplish. 

Big or small. Whenever I feel like I’m standing still, I can look back and see how far I’ve actually come.

#2 New Habit

Each week I’m writing down my top priorities, then deciding each night what I want to get done the next day. And when those tasks are finished?

I’m giving myself permission to enjoy the rest of the day — without guilt or the pressure to “do more.”

If I want to do more, great. But I’m not forcing it.

It’s all about small choices, repeated with intention, that build a sense of progress and momentum — instead of constantly worrying about the next big achievement.
