Tiny wins are often hard to see. They don’t seem significant, but they accumulate.
James Clear explains in Atomic Habits that 1% better daily will compound into becoming 37 times better in a year.
You don’t go heavier on a lift in the gym, but you eke out a couple extra reps.
You walk into a coffee shop and get right to the counter before a rush of people that have to line up behind you.
You hit almost every green light on your way home from work.
You actually enjoy a meal that sounds too healthy to be tasty.
You write a single sentence and suddenly your muse has arrived.
We don’t always see them, we rarely celebrate them, but the tiny little things that we can choose to pay attention to and appreciate can be the highlight of the day… or the precursor to more wins, big and small, in the future.
