Accomplished: Making Success A Habit.
Accomplished
This is the sweet taste of victory. Everyone loves being a winner. You love being a winner and I love being a winner. And having it happen on repeat will help you develop your growth mindset.
That is why this is the “A” and 4th action in my G.R.E.A.T. principle towards your self-improvement. From moving from just being "good" to being "Great".
It’s important to set yourself up with goals for the day, week, month, or even year as they are the targets that give you direction on where you need to hit. And the sooner you complete them, the sooner you feel accomplished.
That, in turn, will make you more productive at work, a better spouse, and a more active parent.
Start with 3 small victories for the day- if you have more than 3, you may feel rushed and could struggle to get anything done, plus it will limit the rewarding feeling of accomplishing a task. Build up your momentum by making what you have to do really easy to complete.
Some easy ways you can start stacking some W’s (as my friend Coach Chuck would say) are to:
- Make your bed
- Unload the dishwasher
- Write 1 piece of content
- Learn 1 new fact
- Read 1 page of any book
- Write 1 thank you note and send it out
- Have your dinner plans already created for your family
- Ask a question or answer feedback from a coach
- Go for a 10-minute walk
While these are some suggestions, any activity that makes you a more Proactive person rather than a Reactive person fits the mold here. It’s up to you to identify these behaviors and habits proactively and knock them out.
Once you get the hang of this, then you can attach more progressive tasks to the goals you are already accomplishing. For example:
-Make your bed-> Make the kids' bed as well
- Unload the dishwasher-> Place the kid's breakfast bowls and plates in the empty dishwasher
- Write 1 piece of content-> Choose when you want to share your content
You can add to the already easy tasks that you are accomplishing consistently by making it slightly more challenging without much effort. This will promote productivity, you’ll feel great satisfaction, and you’ll be better fit to take on and win the day.
