💛 Everything Counts. Especially THIS.
We're often remarkably good at noticing what we didn't do.
- The post that flopped rather than the one that started a great conversation.
- The task we didn't finish rather than the five we did.
- The workout we missed rather than the two we completed.
- The moment we lost our patience rather than the MANY moments we handled well.
Sometimes we expect perfection — and anything short of that somehow doesn't quite count.
I think one of the most supportive habits you can build for YOURSELF is the ability to notice what you did well.
That positive reinforcement we so naturally give to someone we care about?
You need some of that from YOU too. 💛
A few simple ways I've been practising this:
✅ ONE: Say it to yourself.
When you handle something well, actually acknowledge it.
"Good job."
"Well done."
"Nice work."
"I'm proud of how I handled that."
Whatever sounds like YOU.
It might feel slightly strange at first. Do it anyway. 😆
✅ TWO: Give yourself daily reference points for success.
I still write three of these in my journal most days.
Nothing enormous required.
Sometimes they're simply small decisions, actions or moments that remind me:
I'm making progress. I'm following through. This counts.
✅ THREE: Let it show up in your journaling.
My number one rule for journaling?
NO RULES! 😂
One sentence. One page. One hour. Whatever works for you.
Lately, when it comes to mind, I've been finishing with:
"You did well today, hon."
And you know what? It feels REALLY good.
Especially because not everyone has someone in their life regularly telling them that.
Maybe you have a coach, cheerleader, super-supportive partner or wonderful friend.
Maybe you don't.
Either way, they're not inside your head 24/7.
And... you ARE!
Which makes the way you speak to YOU incredibly powerful.
For better or worse.
Let's make it for better. 💛
🌱 YOUR TURN: Before you scroll away, give yourself some credit.
What's ONE thing you did well today?
Big, tiny, seemingly ordinary — it ALL counts. 💛
