Don’t Underestimate Your Growth: The Importance of Acknowledging Our Journey

My 2022’s first goal

Initially, I thought to myself, “Why would I set such a seemingly simple goal?”

As I embark on my personal goal-planning journey for 2023, I took the time to reflect on my accomplishments from the previous year by revisiting my list of goals from 2022.

One particular goal caught my eye: to host a full-day workshop on networking, communities, and personal branding.

Initially, I thought to myself, “Why would I set such a seemingly simple goal?” However, upon further reflection, I realized that this goal wasn’t so simple after all.

Just a year ago, the thought of hosting a workshop in this field intimidated me. But now, after having:

Built a comprehensive agendaCreated all the necessary content and slidesPlanned engaging exercisesSet up a landing pageDesigned adsArranged payment methodsReached out to potential attendeesConducted the workshop twiceReceived valuable feedback

Now this task seems effortless…

It’s easy to underestimate our progress and growth when we look back. But it’s important to remain aware and mindful of our journey, taking the time to evaluate our steps and celebrate our achievements.
