A business leader asked me recently:
“Why do I find it hard to give myself credit or feel truly satisfied with my work and what I’ve accomplished?”
My answer:
You won’t feel accomplished if you don’t make space to stop & acknowledge your accomplishments.
I know it sounds incredibly obvious but when I lay it out like that,
But it’s so easy to overlook amongst work meetings, quality time with family, getting to the gym etc etc etc.
My recent example?
My hair.
Yes… my hair.
I’d spent years saying it never grows.
Then one day I caught myself in a video and realised…
it had grown.
A lot actually.
I just never slowed down enough to notice.
You’re probably the same.
Scaling. Improving. Evolving.
But so focused on the next milestone that you forget the wins you’ve already earned.
So carve out some time:
Daily.
Weekly.
Monthly.
And look at how far you’ve come.
Don’t expect it to happen by accident, because it won’t.
