Two Simple Words To Give Yourself Credit
We often forget to give ourselves credit for the work we're doing towards reaching our goals. Yet, it is exactly the act of acknowledging our efforts that provides positive reinforcement that motivates us to keep going. If you stopped right now and named the last step you took toward reaching your goal, how would you feel? What would you feel ready to do next? Try this simple exercise with me and feel the shift happen.
Transcript
Do this with me right now.
Yay me!
Again.
Yay me!
One more time.
Yay me!
Good for you.
Yay you!
You know something?
We have a tendency to not give ourselves enough credit.
Think about all the things you do.
All the things you do in a day.
All the things you do in the last,
All the things you've done in the last two hours.
I bet it's going to be a long list if you really think about it.
And all the things that you are doing to work towards your goals.
You know,
It can be so easy to disregard that and be like,
Oh,
It wasn't anything or I wasn't,
I didn't do much.
Or just to not think about it.
But take a minute and think about it and give yourself some props.
Because.
.
.
You are taking steps.
You are going somewhere.
You are making your goals happen step by step by step.
You're showing up.
You're working on yourself.
You're thinking about things.
You're reaching out,
Maybe getting some support.
You are doing things.
And one of the things that people tend to not do enough of is.
Give themselves some recognition and credit.
You're an awesome,
Capable,
Talented,
Amazing person with value to share.
It's going to help somebody.
When they need it.
Thank you.
So I want you to remember to acknowledge yourself.
Okay.
Remember to give yourself yay me and props when you do something.
Because what that does is it gives you positive reinforcement in your own mind.
And that motivates you to keep going.
And you deserve it.
And every step that you.
Are taking towards reaching your goal is getting you there.
