Meera is a project manager at a mid-sized tech firm. Her team was preparing for a major product launch—a new AI-driven dashboard tool. Pressure was high, timelines were tight, and mistakes were piling up. Here’s how each HabitZup card’s meaning played out in her journey:

🔹 1. Organise

When the project began, chaos ruled. Everyone was working in silos. Meera initiated a Monday morning “Mind Unclutter” ritual, where the team would sync, prioritize tasks, and take 5-minute breaks every 90 minutes to avoid burnout.

🔹 2. Restart

After 3 weeks, the prototype failed during the client demo. Instead of panicking, Meera told the team:

They re-evaluated the code structure and scrapped what wasn’t working.

🔹 3. Reset

One junior developer, Nikhil, felt disheartened. Meera noticed and gave him a small but crucial task: fixing a feature bug.
That confidence boost helped him bounce back—and he eventually led a key module.

🔹 4. Swap

Midway, the UI/UX designer resigned. Meera swapped roles within the team—allowing a content strategist to step in temporarily due to her design background.
The project stayed on track.

🔹 5. Undo

A senior engineer had made a database change without informing QA—breaking the staging environment.
Instead of blame, Meera said,

He apologized, fixed it, and later trained others on better communication protocols.

🔹 6. Distract

Team meetings started dragging. Phones, side chats, and Slack notifications were constant.
Meera asked everyone to do a “distraction audit”—and introduced 25-min Pomodoro blocks to focus deeply.

🔹 7. Skip

Meera noticed a teammate was overburdened but too shy to speak up. She reassigned some of his tasks to herself, quietly.
Another time, a teammate forgot a critical update—and Meera gently reminded the group without naming names.

🔹 8. Draw

When the final build crashed during UAT, instead of meltdown, the team called it ‘Draw Card Day’—they took a breather and gave themselves one more chance.

🔹 9. Cycle

The team had a mantra—“No one left behind.”
Whenever someone was stuck, others would jump in. Designers helped coders, coders helped testers.

🔹 10. Exchange

Before go-live, every team member wrote one positive feedback for another member on sticky notes.
It created a culture of emotional exchange, not just task exchange.

🔹 11. Reverse

A week before launch, the marketing lead proposed a flashy ad campaign. Meera said:

They reversed the plan—and focused on testimonials from beta users instead.

🏁 Result?

The product launched on time, with less stress, stronger bonding, and customer appreciation. The client?

They said:

“We didn’t just buy your product—we bought your culture.”
