Before You Chase the Next Goal, Do This One Thing First
Episode description
This week on Focus on the Fun Stuff, I’m delving into something that so many business owners (myself included!) struggle with—actually celebrating our progress instead of constantly chasing the next goal.
If you’ve ever found yourself hitting a milestone and immediately thinking, what’s next? without stopping to acknowledge how far you’ve come, this episode is for you.
Inspired by Dan Sullivan’s book, "The Gap and the Gain," I explore how high achievers often live in "the gap"—always focused on where they want to be, instead of appreciating how much they’ve already achieved. And trust me, this mindset shift is a game-changer.
💡 In this episode, I’ll share:
✔️ How I’ve personally struggled with this (and what I’ve done to change it)
✔️ Why shifting your mindset from gap to gain can make you a happier and more motivated entrepreneur
✔️ The small but powerful habits I’ve introduced to celebrate progress, like gratitude practices, journaling, and even monthly celebration dinners
✔️ How acknowledging your wins can actually help you grow your business faster
This is a short but impactful episode that will help you find more joy in your journey—because success isn’t just about the next big goal, it’s about appreciating how far you’ve already come.
🎧 Listen now and start celebrating your wins today!
