We often focus on visible achievements…
The scale going down, hitting the gym daily to check off that box, seeing changes in our bodies…
But there’s so much more to celebrate in our journeys.
What about the effort we put in when those visible achievements aren’t apparent? Consider the non-visible wins.
The progress, the thought, the learning process…
They may not be tangible, but they are invaluable. Every time we learn something new or make progress toward a goal, we’re growing.
Or you might be lifting only a 45-pound barbell because of certain symptoms, but remember, three months ago, walking was a challenge.
Maybe you mastered a new skill, conquered a fear, or made progress in the gym by lifting heavier each week.
Or perhaps you can now perform a set of jumps with no issues—celebrating the small victories matters!
It’s crucial to acknowledge that all progress, no matter how small, is still progress.
Training our minds to focus on small victories lead us to our goals quicker and keep us grounded.
The 20-minute walk outside, preparing a home-cooked meal while the kids nap, a 25-minute interval routine…
Sometimes the significant achievements take time to appear, and it’s easy to feel discouraged.
Don’t let the pressure of numbers and appearances consume you. Instead, focus on the journey and the progress you make along the way.
Remember, it’s not about being perfect; it’s about improving each day.
