Monthly Log

A once-a-month check-in, built with work in mind — but the shape works for anything.

Four prompts, once a month:

  • Core Goals (pick 2) — what are the two outcomes that would make this month count?
  • Growth Goals (pick 2) — what two things do you want to be measurably better at by the end of the month?
  • Ideas & Open Threads — what's worth capturing now so it doesn't get lost: frustrations, ideas, things to revisit?
  • End-of-Month Wins — what actually happened? Be specific: what got done, who helped, what's the evidence?

Built with work in mind, but the shape doesn't care what you're doing — a training block, a semester, a creative project all fit the same four questions.

Core & Growth Goals — carry them straight into next month's Goal Setting & Priorities.

Help me write a Monthly Log using four prompts: two Core Goals, two Growth Goals, Ideas & Open Threads, and End-of-Month Wins. Ask me one at a time, and push me to pick exactly two goals in each category, not a longer list.
