Today we want to ask you a serious question. What did you do this year that you’re PROUD of?

 

A lot of times we are so focused on what’s ahead, that we don’t take time to acknowledge how far we’ve come!

 

It’s time to turn that around.

 

There’s an old Chinese proverb that says:

 

Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.

 

Pretty profound when you think about it, right?

 

In our everyday routine, we get caught up in all the things we think we SHOULD do …

 

Or the things we should have done BETTER …

 

Or how we will change things so next time they will be MORE EFFECTIVE.

 

What if, instead, you looked back on the past year and asked yourself:

 

What did I do that I’m proud of myself for? What did I CRUSH this year?

 

Here are a few questions to help jog your memory about this year’s “wins”:

 

• What big challenge did you take on?
• What new thing did you try?
• What did you do, even though it scared or intimidated you?
• What hard decision did you make?
• What did you start doing to move forward?
• What did you STOP doing, that was holding you back?
• What did you try, fail at, and then try again?
• How did you step out of your comfort zone?

 

Take some time to think about the things from 2022 that make you proud. It’s important to acknowledge your achievements!

 

This isn’t just a feel-good “fun” exercise.

 

When we challenge ourselves – when we do things that make us proud – we build something called “self-efficacy.”

 

That’s a HUGE trait to have. It’s a special kind of confidence that means you know you can count on yourself.

 

There’s nothing more empowering than that!
