Long-term projects can feel like they are not moving. You work every day, but progress feels invisible. Mark your progress weekly. This might be a checklist, a percentage, or a visual indicator. The format does not matter. What matters is seeing advancement.
Update your progress marker every week. Even small progress counts. The marker becomes evidence that you are moving forward, even when it does not feel like it. This visual tracking maintains motivation during long projects.
This practice works for any long-term goal. A skill you are learning. A project you are building. A habit you are developing. The marker makes invisible progress visible.
Choose a long-term project. Create a progress marker. Update it weekly. Then notice how much more motivated you feel when you can see your advancement, even when it feels slow.
