We’re wired for progress. · The AI Advantage

We’re wired for progress.

As humans, and especially as entrepreneurs, we need to feel like we’re moving forward. Otherwise, what’s the point?

And coming out of the gate into a new year, even though it somehow already feels like January 75th, a lot of entrepreneurs are feeling the same thing...

You’re working.

You’re showing up.

But you’re quietly wondering if you’re actually making progress or just staying busy.

The truth is that if you are not measuring where you’re going, it’s really hard to know if you’re moving forward at all. And a lot of the time frustration doesn’t come from lack of effort. It comes from lack of knowing if anything you are doing is actually moving the needle.

You can do everything right and still feel off if you don’t have something concrete telling you, “Yes, this is working.”

So instead of asking, “Am I winning?” ask better questions.

What actually moved forward this week?

What’s clearer today than it was seven days ago?

What’s one thing you could track that would give you real certainty?

Progress doesn’t always feel exciting in the moment. But clarity creates momentum.

What’s one thing you’re paying attention to right now that tells you you’re headed in the right direction?
