Check in about a small win

Invite recognition of a specific accomplishment without requiring enthusiasm on command.

Try this

  1. Ask whether now is a good time for a short account, then describe the specific thing completed.
  2. Say what kind of acknowledgment you would enjoy if you know. Avoid making an elaborate celebration the only acceptable response.

A worked example

“I finished the task I kept postponing. Could I tell you about it?”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

Let the response be natural; a quiet acknowledgment can still be a real response.
