If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know I am all about positivity.
My glass isn’t just half-full, it’s overflowing!
One of the reasons I’m so positive is that I work for it. I take time each day to reflect on the good things that have happened, and what I’m looking forward to next.
I’m telling you this because it’s had a major impact on my business.
Running a business is a lot of work, but it can also be a lot of fun! One of the best ways to bring in more positivity is to map out your wins
Here’s what that looks like:
If you’ve been in the game a while, take a moment to notice something… Those small accomplishments have added up, haven’t they?
Or, if you’re still in the beginning of your journey, get pumped! Those small wins are going to stack up to something major.
Now that you’ve made your list, you might be wondering… Okay, but why?
Those wins aren’t just a list of accomplishments to look at and get warm fuzzy feelings. Those wins are the evidence of your hard work and success. Those wins shout to the world “LOOK WHAT I HAVE ACCOMPLISHED!”
Here’s a little secret: it’s totally cool to brag about your accomplishments from time to time. You worked hard for them!
Look at your list, and notice how small wins (like gaining followers on social media) can stack up to newer, bigger wins (getting a bunch of leads from a Facebook group). Those wins stack up to even bigger wins, like scoring a major client or selling out your newest course.
(Pssst… This is where the “map” part of mapping out your wins comes in.)
Let’s say your small win this week was meeting another business owner at a networking event.
Depending on your business goals, your map could look like any of these:
While snowballing those wins is reason enough to start mapping them out, there’s an even better reason out there: that list of wins is proof of your success!
Every time I’m on a call with a potential lead, I keep my list handy. That way, when they ask for concrete examples of my skills, I have immediate, relevant evidence.
A win is a win, no matter how small.
You should celebrate every single one as evidence of your hard work!
