Win jar: drop one small win from today into the jar
A win jar is a running collection of small wins. Each day you write one thing that went right — “sent the report early”, “inbox under 20” — and drop it in. On days when it feels like you achieved nothing, the full jar shows otherwise.
How to do it, step by step
- Think of one small thing that went right today.
- Type it in a short sentence.
- Drop it into the jar.
- Look back at your jar at the end of the week.
Why it helps
- Counters “I did nothing today” thinking
- Builds a record you can use in reviews
- Takes 30 seconds
When to use it at work
- At the end of the workday
- After finishing a task you were dreading
- On a low-energy afternoon
