Possibilities

By Julie Hein

I was talking this morning with some friends about how we typically measure ourselves.  We take stock of what we’ve done by creating this long list of tasks that need to be done and things to improve.  It feels like work.  It is work.  Just looking at the list can make you feel inadequate, overwhelmed and like a failure.  What a bad place to have worked hard and still feel like nothing is done or nothing is done perfectly enough.  

Another way to get your goal setting done is to document the progress and celebrate them first.  Then create the “piling on to our success” list that exacerbates those victories.  That might feel better, eh?  Positivity, baby! Get yourself some.  You’re doing a great job running a business -- be sure you spend time honoring those victories as you make plans for more of them!
