Most digital productivity tools focus on what you have yet to do, but they never celebrate what you've accomplished.

"Keeping a daily log of what we actually got done, even if it was just a series of unexpected small wins, can soothe our frustration at not having conquered the whole to-do list and boost our motivation for work the next day." -- Teresa Amabile, professor at Harvard Business School and co-author of The Progress Principle: Using Small Wins to Ignite Joy, Engagement, and Creativity at Work.
