# Write your self-review in minutes from a two-minute daily log

> At review time you've got dated examples for every competency, not a blank page and a fuzzy memory.

Set up one chat with your role and the skills you're rated on, then talk through your day for two minutes. At review time, it turns months of entries into a self-assessment with real examples.

- Category: Upgrade your everyday
- Made for: Everyone

## The prompt

Fill in the parts in [square brackets], or leave them and the AI will ask you for them.

```text
This chat is my work log for review season. My role: [YOUR ROLE, e.g. customer success lead]. The competencies I'm rated on: [YOUR COMPETENCIES, e.g. leadership, communication, results]. Each time I tell you about my day, reply with a short dated entry: what I did, the result or who it helped, and which competency it shows. If the impact isn't clear, ask me one follow-up question, like a number or which team I helped. Don't just repeat what I said. When I say 'write my review', turn every entry into a self-assessment organized by competency, with my two strongest examples under each, one growth area with a plan, and three goals for next period.
```

## Step by step

1. Start a new chat or a ChatGPT or Claude Project, and paste the prompt below.
2. Pin the chat so you can find it every evening.
3. Tap the mic and talk through your day for two minutes in that same chat.
4. Type 'write my review' when your self-assessment is due.

## What you'll get

A running log of dated wins tied to your competencies, then a full self-assessment draft with real examples when it's due.
