Small Victories: 4 Reasons To Celebrate Small Wins
What Is a “Small Win?” First, let’s establish (установите) what a “small
win” is. Small wins are anything you accomplish that aligns (выстраивает
вас в один ряд) with your intentions. They can be related to work, personal
or professional relationships, habit changes, and basically every aspect of your
life. Small wins can be easy to gloss over (приукрасить), especially if you’ve
been raised (вас воспитали) on a diet of self-criticism and perfectionism.
Here’s an example. Let’s say that you intend to be less judgmental
(судить) of others. A small victory might simply be noticing when you start
to think something judgmental (осудительно) about how someone else says
the word “milk.” Even though (даже несмотря на то, что) the thought still
popped into your head when they pronounced it “melk,” you at least noticed
yourself in the thought.
