Weekly Log Questions
I often go back and forth between using a weekly log and not. When I do, I often use these questions to help me focus:
- Things I want to do this week
- What were my 3-5 biggest wins from last week?
- What worked, what didn’t?
- What will you keep, improve, start or stop doing?
Seasonal Questions
Sometimes I like to add extra questions for special seasons like the holidays. Here are some examples:
- During November and leading up to Thanksgiving I often make space for a gratitude question. Recently I followed alone with Day One’s 30 days of gratitude.
- For Christmas, I’ll often put in a Holiday Moment, designed to help me capture the magic in the small moments of the season.
