One small hack I used in every company I've been so far, is to keep a gmail label \"Journey\" and archive emails, photos and videos of those moments I thought were interesting part of our journey as a team and company. It may be an email from our first happy customer, or an email with some crazy photos to celebrate a milestone or welcoming a new member to the team. Looking back at it a few years later brings back a lot of those magic moments I was so proud being apart of. Lara Hogan has a unique way to capture those moments in her career in a way that I can only envy her.
