Celebrate small wins and progress from "summary" of The Confidence Gap by Russ Harris

When we are striving to achieve a goal or make a change in our lives, it's common to focus solely on the end result. We set our sights on the ultimate outcome, and we may start to feel discouraged or demotivated if we don't see immediate progress towards that goal. This can lead to a sense of failure or inadequacy, and we may even give up on our efforts altogether. However, it's important to remember that progress is not always linear. It's rare for significant change to happen overnight. Instead, it usually occurs in small, incremental steps. These small wins may seem insignificant on their own, but they are crucial building blocks that lead us towards our ultimate goal. By celebrating these small wins and acknowledging the progress we have made, we can boost our confidence and motivation. It's like giving ourselves a pat on the back for our efforts, no matter how small they may seem. This positive reinforcement can help us stay on track and continue moving forward, even when faced with challenges or setbacks. When we focus on celebrating our progress, we shift our attention away from the end result and towards the journey itself. We start to appreciate the process of growth and change, rather than just the outcome. This can help us develop a more positive mindset and increase our resilience in the face of obstacles. So, the next time you find yourself feeling discouraged or stuck in your efforts, take a moment to reflect on the progress you have made so far. Acknowledge the small wins along the way, no matter how minor they may seem. By doing so, you can cultivate a sense of achievement and confidence that will propel you towards your ultimate goal.
