The Daily Save

"Good is not a thing you are. It's a thing you do." — Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan)

We focus on the "Global Event"—the asteroid, the alien invasion. But the hero spends 90% of their time just patrolling the neighborhood. They stop a mugging. They help a cat.

I used to live for the big launch days and ignore the boring maintenance. That led to burnout. Kamala Khan reminds us that "Good" is a verb. You aren't a success because of one big win; you are a success because you answered the difficult email today.

Stacking Wins is about the "Daily Save." It’s the boring rep that keeps the city running.

Practical Tips to Stack Your Wins

  • The "Zero Day" Rule: Do something related to your goal every day, even for 5 minutes. keep the streak alive.

  • Celebrate the Mundane: Write down one "boring" win today (e.g., "Paid the invoice").

  • Micro-Patrol: Take 10 minutes to patrol your ecosystem—check balances, clear notifications.

Daily Reflection

What small, unglamorous action have you been skipping because it doesn't feel "epic"?

Mantra for the Day

"I do not wait for the apocalypse. I win the Tuesday."
