What’s #winning?
Is it in the moment of glory when you get that medal?
Or that promotion you’ve always wanted?
Or that closed won opportunity that you’ve worked so hard for?
If that’s your definition, then life is going to be tough.
It’s about reframing life to focus on
The process.
The grind.
The blood, sweat and tears.
It’s about the emotional labour, as Seth Godin describes.
The emotional labour of honing your craft, whatever that might be.
Showing up, day after day.
Week after week.
Getting up after every setback.
I felt like I needed to be reminded of this today, when things are feeling just a bit too difficult.
Celebrate the little moments of win.
When you have a few minutes before your little one get to school and she tells you she loves you.
When you overcome that fear and asks your customer for a video testimonial (and she says yes!)
I needed to remind myself this today.
If you’re in the same boat, then I feel you.
Let’s celebrate the little wins.
One of them is that I’m somehow connected to you, and you’re reading this.
And perhaps in a small way, I am brightening up your world.
And in this small way, I matter.
And you matter too.
Just remember to celebrate the small wins. 🌹
