The method itself

The MyHGY™ Method is a structured daily practice for returning to what is actually true about your day — what you did, what you handled, what you brought to it, what was there alongside whatever was hard. Done consistently, it builds a visible record of action, capability, and progress that the mind would otherwise lose. Read about how it works.
