It's performance review season... 😰

What did I even do this year?

I guess I'll write "supported various initiatives"

Your brain • Monday 2:31 PM
You literally led a migration that saved £200k but sure, "supported various initiatives" sounds great

You did great work this year. You just forgot 90% of it. That project you rescued in March? Gone. The junior dev you mentored? Poof. The production incident you fixed at 11pm? Your brain deleted it to make room for Netflix plot lines.

Your manager doesn't remember either. They have 8 other people to think about.

A brag doc fixes this

It's just a running document where you write down your wins as they happen. Takes 2 minutes. Do it every Friday. That's it.

✅ You, with a brag doc
👤
You • Every Friday, 5 mins
• Led API migration, reduced latency 40%
• Mentored Jamie through first on-call rotation
• Fixed payment bug affecting 2k users
👤
You • Review season
*opens doc* oh right, I'm actually quite good at my job
Tip: Your brag doc isn't just for reviews. Use it for 1:1s with your manager, salary negotiations, job interviews, or when imposter syndrome hits at 3am.

Things you might have forgotten

If you checked even one of these, you have unbrag-documented wins.
