Micro Wins...
Crossing-off something from our daily list is a micro win - confirmation that we have taken some sort of action, closed some loop or fulfilled some commitment.
But micro wins can only move us towards macro wins if the thing we are crossing off our list was an intentional move towards a bigger goal or ambition - paying my gas bill doesn’t move me forward, figuring out the skills I need to develop for a new project does.
It really doesn’t matter how small the step is, so long as it is a step in the right direction…
