Year in Review

Zip is helping a friend, Robin, look back on the year. Go through Robin's notes one quarter at a time and sort each into Wins, Lessons or Leave out. Turn one setback per quarter into a takeaway, then pick next year's plans. The result is a one-page review.

4 quarters
Reflection

How to play

Sort the notes. Four notes per quarter: a Win, a Lesson (a setback worth learning from) or Leave out. Tap or press 1 to 3.
Find the takeaway. After each quarter, pick the takeaway that helps most next year: specific beats vague, and blame isn't a lesson.
Plan next year. Pick the 3 plans that follow from the review: fix a lesson or keep doing a win.
Score. 50 per note in the right place, up to 100 per takeaway, 100 per good plan. 1,500 points max.

Quick tips

Win = something done. A goal reached, a skill learned, trust earned. It doesn't have to be big.
Lesson = a setback with a fix. If there's something to do differently, it's a lesson, not just a bad day.
