I used to run from one goal to another, always chasing the next milestone. One day, I realized that I never took the time to celebrate my wins. I was so focused on what was next that I overlooked the progress I was making along the way.
As an entrepreneur, coach, and author of Design Your Wins Every Day, I’ve come to understand one fundamental truth: Success isn’t about one grand moment of victory—it’s about the small, consistent wins we achieve every single day.
I didn’t always see it this way. When I started my journey, I was constantly chasing big milestones, thinking that success would come in one defining breakthrough. But reality taught me something different. The days I felt the most accomplished weren’t necessarily the ones where I hit a huge goal. They were the days I showed up, took action, and honored the process. Those little wins? They were stacking up to create the big wins I was dreaming about.
It’s Not Just About Cheerleading
Because business isn’t just about having a great idea.
It’s about strategy, mission, passion, motivation, and, most importantly—consistent action.
And here’s the truth: Success isn’t built in a day—it’s built in the small, daily wins.
Every client call you take.
Every piece of content you put out.
Every time you push through doubt and show up anyway.
These moments may seem small, but they are the foundation of long-term growth. When I was writing Design Your Wins Every Day, I wanted to create a mindset shift for entrepreneurs, helping them see that momentum isn’t about waiting for a big break—it’s about celebrating progress in real time.
Daily Wins = Business Momentum
Too often, we overlook the progress we’re making because we’re focused on the big picture. But momentum doesn’t come from one huge breakthrough—it comes from the compound effect of showing up, refining, learning, and taking the next step every single day.
Even on the tough days, when things don’t go as planned, acknowledging what did go right keeps you moving forward. I remember moments when I doubted whether my book would make an impact, but instead of dwelling on uncertainty, I focused on the small wins—completing another chapter, having an inspiring conversation with a reader, or simply staying committed to the vision. Those moments carried me forward.
