Sure, you can accomplish amazing things out of your own determination and talent, not needing help from anyone to achieve your goals. But it’s sure a lot nicer when others are there to honor and appreciate what you have done.
What is one way you support another person to achieve their goal?
“First forget inspiration. Habit is more dependable. Habit will sustain you whether you’re inspired or not. Habit will help you finish and polish your stories. Inspiration won’t. Habit is persistence in practice.”
― Octavia E. Butler
What is a constructive habit that you have?
When you reach your ambitious goals, it matters that you take the time to admire the view and appreciate all you have accomplished. Of course, the path to your ambitious goals will be a lot nicer if you take time all the way along to appreciate the view from exactly where you are.
What does the view look like from this moment of your life?
“You never know what’s around the corner. It could be everything. Or it could be nothing. You keep putting one foot in front of the other, and then one day you look back and you’ve climbed a mountain.”
― Tom Hiddleston
What have you looked back at and been surprised that you accomplished?
Sometimes small acts can cast a surprisingly long shadow: kind words that are remembered, a little encouragement that builds confidence, a hand of support just when it is most needed.
What do you keep doing without seeing results, hoping that it will cast a long shadow?
