To whoever who needs to hear this, the small daily wins do add up! A good day leads to a good week, a good week eventually leads to a good month and then.. to good year! :) Albert Schweitzer- 'By breaking down ambitious goals into smaller, attainable milestones, we create a path where each small win fuels motivation, builds momentum, and fosters a sense of accomplishment.'

Great reminder. Lots of research on momentum, productivity, and creativity around the power of acknowledging wins (big or small)... Acknowledging and celebrating your progress magnifies your sense of accomplishment and can help you reinforce positive habits and actions. Research shows that simply recording your progress may help you appreciate your small accomplishments, which in turn, may boost your sense of confidence and increase your creative performance. A great book (or book summary) to check out if interested more in the science of acknowledging wins is The Progress Principle by Theresa Amabile

@jefffajans Thanks for the recommendation. I love Stoicism and journalling(i use the app stoic) as well but i didn't know about The Progress Principle

@xavier_jj Sure thing. It's not the most engaging read but if into science and psychology it's good. This article sums findings up nicely: https://hbr.org/2011/05/the-powe...
