Give Yourself Some Credit

 There are so many ways to go backwards, but only one way forward. Danielle La Porte


Give yourself some credit, give yourself a high five. Why?

Eight months into a global pandemic that threw the world into a tail spin, you are still here - you deserve to say well done to self, to appreciate this.

Give yourself some credit for waking up daily and doing what you need to do, if you are doing what you want to do, give yourself an even bigger pat on the back.

Give yourself a break, this has been an intense year. Many literally have not made it. 

Give thanks for the opportunities, the lessons and the blessings.

Celebrate the difficult conversation that you had that you usually avoid. 

Give yourself credit for having the courage to do that new thing that you kept procrastinating with.

Congratulate yourself for speaking up even when your voice was trembling. 

Many times we forget to celebrate ourselves, to give ourselves credit when we are so focused on achieving a particular goal, when we have not reached our target or still moving towards the big vision.

Celebrate the small wins. Have some fun. The Law of Balance is essential in navigating through this life.

So, today I am getting a piece of chocolate and celebrating my small wins, I will be eating it with a smile on my face and absolutely zero guilt.

What will you be doing to celebrate your small wins today?

Peace
