Long ago I read an article that focused on celebrating the small wins. That article stayed with me and has been a positive strategy.
To acknowledge and celebrate the small wins is always powerful because those small wins eventually add up to positive, live changing wins. Also, focusing on the small wins, can really help you in the face of a big change or loss. Those small wins are building blocks for the next stage of life when redirected.
As I think of that today, I am thinking of the small wins in my life that have made life better for me and those I love, small wins like these:
- a wonderful birthday meal
- a good routine at home
- creating the backyard garden
- helping a loved one who is experiencing a health problem
- going for a hike with a friend
- exchanging letters with loved ones
- contributing to the political campaign of a leader I admire
As we go about our lives, it is good to stop and acknowledge the small wins we achieve daily. The more we do that, the more we fill our lives with positivity, the kind of positivity that spreads to make our lives and the lives of others better.
