The small wins
I am a very big believer in celebrating the small victories in life because really, life doesn’t throw big ones often. It is noticing these little wins that can add up and in turn make you a happier person. Today my small wins included reorganising the crap by my bed (I don’t have a bedside table so it tends to become a pile if I have been busy/lacking motivation), my wardrobe, the pots and pan cupboard in the kitchen and cleaning the lower level of the house till it was spotless. I love the smell of spray and wipe in the morning! Smells like small victories! Doesn’t seem like much I know, but these things have been haunting the back of my mind that they weren’t done. I also really hate when things are out of order. I do have mild OCD so it does stress me out more than it should.
Small wins are what allows me to make it through the day, especially work days. My job can be incredibly frustrating with multiple jobs happening at once and often multiple jobs going to shit at once, so when something actually goes right, or you solve a particularly tough issue with your amazing logic and intellect, you have to celebrate that.
