Do you get caught up in the New Year’s Resolution trap only to feel frustrated that you didn’t make the changes you promised several weeks into the New Year? What if you did away with grand changes for the New Year? Often the best way to affect change is to slow down and build on what is already going well for you.

That’s why every year at GPS, we like to take stock of our past year.

Specifically, we take the time to celebrate our wins. Too often we don’t celebrate the things we actually did right. Taking the time to stop and really appreciate our accomplishments and our hard work in the year helps us gain the momentum we need to try some new things as well.

Our mindset can be such a powerful force in our lives; when we can be kind to ourselves, instead of beating ourselves up about our failures, everything improves.

Momentum is one of the keys to getting to more of what you want in your life. It’s often hardest to get momentum started, and our mindset can make an amazing difference.

So, why not join our team in writing at least 5 wins you had in 2023?

No win is too small. Focusing on the size of the win is how you kill momentum towards the life you want. If you want your kids to have a positive growth mindset, do this exercise. We can’t teach them what we haven’t learned.

It’s a deceptively simple exercise.

Tiny wins are as important as big ones!

The first step is often the hardest. So make sure you don’t discount any win!

Feel free to write more than 5 things. But make sure you write AT LEAST five. Okay?

Solidify your wins for yourself AND inspire others, as well as make my day, by sharing your wins in the comments below, okay?

After you are done, watch to see what happens! Then share that too, okay?! I don’t want to give it away, but I can’t help but hint…

What we focus on expands.

Maybe this will inspire you to start writing 5 things down each day (or most days), that have gone well. Perfection isn’t required, and this focus on 5 things you did well will help you to do more and more of the things that you want.

This one TINY action can ensure 2024 ROCKS!!!!

Remember too that the size of the win is NOT important!

I can hardly wait to read about your 5 wins!
