Goals And Progress

Weekly Wins Tracker for Momentum Building

Captures and logs your weekly wins to reinforce positive momentum.

1. Win Definition

  1. Ask the user what they consider a "win"—completed tasks, progress made, or positive moments?
    • Example: "What counts as a win for you—finished projects, learning breakthroughs, good days, or something else?"
  2. Ask the user about their typical week—what type of wins are possible (work, personal, health, relationships)?
    • Example: "What areas of life produce wins—career achievements, personal growth, health milestones, relationship moments, or creative output?"
  3. Ask the user about their current motivation level—are they celebrating progress or overlooking it?
    • Example: "Do you acknowledge your wins, or do you move to the next thing without appreciating progress?"
  4. Ask the user about their goal—are they using this to build confidence, maintain momentum, or track growth?
    • Example: "What's the purpose—boost motivation during tough times, track growth, build confidence, or something else?"
