The Power of Reflection
The key to personal growth and mental organization — a short, structured weekly practice, not a diary.
Why bother
Most people run their whole week on instinct, then wonder why the same problems keep showing up. You already have the data — you just never stop long enough to look at it.
Reflection isn't therapy and it isn't self-help. It's a maintenance habit, the same as checking the numbers or reviewing the pipeline. Skip it long enough and you lose the ability to tell what's actually working from what just feels urgent.
How to actually do it
Start it, and stay consistent. Same day, same few minutes, every week. This isn't an essay — a line or two per question is enough. The value is in answering honestly, not in answering at length.
If you miss a week, don't backfill it. Just pick it back up next week.
The framework
Before you can improve anything, you have to see it clearly. This is where you separate what actually happened from the story you told yourself about it.
Leadership runs on self-awareness. If you don't know your own state, your strengths, and your blind spots, you're leading on guesswork.
Attention is the scarcest resource you have. This is where you decide, on purpose, where it goes next.
