The Future Belongs to Creators Striving for Better While Maintaining a Sense of Gratitude
Many of us set lofty goals and milestones but once we get there, is it enough? Do you know how much is enough for you? The balance between being grateful for what you have and striving for more or bigger goals can be tricky and is different from person to person.
Appreciating your day and the work you’re doing is a big step in practicing gratitude regularly. It also helps you separate productivity from progress; they are not always the same. If you can take a few minutes to write down everything you’re grateful for, it will significantly improve your mental outlook and recharge your ability to drive toward your goals.
In today’s episode, we talk about celebrating wins, comparing your progress to others, practicing gratitude, and how being content and being driven are not mutually exclusive.
Main Takeaways
- Being able to enjoy and learn from the journey allows you to be grateful for where you are while also driving toward new goals.
- When you’re working to fulfill your hierarchy of needs (food, water, shelter, love, etc), it can be difficult to focus on gratitude over goals.
- Take more time to celebrate wins. No matter how big or small, take a moment to celebrate what you’ve accomplished.
- Every six months, ask yourself, “what’s one thing I’ve accomplished that I’m proud of?” Then make a plan to celebrate it with someone rather than keeping it inside.
