Hers For The Taking · The Next 90 Days
Week 5: Find where your work goes quiet
Everything for the week on one page: your moves, worksheet, scripts.
This week's moves
Move 115 min · Written
Start your wins log, today. Open a note on your phone titled "Wins." Write the last five things you did that worked: a problem solved, a thing shipped, a save nobody saw. Use script 1 so each says what it was worth. You'll feed this for the rest of the 90 days.
Move 220 min · Scored
Map who decides on your target. List five people who influence whether you reach your target: the person who decides, their boss, the peer who's always consulted, someone in another team whose work depends on yours, one senior leader with a say. Next to each, write what they could say about your work today. Write "blank" where you don't know.

Pick the gap that costs the most. Choose the one person whose blank hurts your target the most. Write: "By [a date in phase 2], I want [name] to know that I [value sentence]." That's your visibility focus for the next few weeks.

Wins log starter (five entries)
Script cards (cut along the dashed lines)
1. The wins log line"[What I did], so that [who] could [result]." Example shape: "Rebuilt the handoff checklist, so that onboarding stopped losing a week per hire."
2. The one-sentence value line"I [verb] [the thing] and it [result]." Strong verbs only: built, ran, fixed, caught, shipped, untangled.
3. Stop shrinking the winTake any sentence about your work and delete "just," "only," "kind of," "a little," "I helped with." If you helped with X, name the part you owned.
4. The peer pulse-checkTo a trusted colleague: "Quick odd question. I'm taking stock of how my work lands. If someone asked you what I'm known for here, what would you say?"
Re-entry note
Coming into phase 2 from a slow phase 1? Start here, not back at week 1. Do move 1 and move 2; this map is the spine of the next five weeks.
