Winning and rewards go together like milk and cookies.
Take the time to do something that makes you feel good; whether
it is a massage, an evening out, a shopping spree or a trip. The feedback loop won’t be complete until you understand good effort
generates great outcomes.
Give yourself a chance to win at something every day.
Some of the bigger goals on your scoreboard may take years but winning
is an expectation you want to wake up with and a satisfaction you go to bed with every night!
A good scoreboard doesn’t just tell you how well you are doing, it can suggest what you could be doing better.
Whether it is reading a book, attending classes or finding a role model; without some form of training and development, your success curve will likely flatten out after a while.
Try not to ever get complacent with the status quo, even when it is very good.
Some successes occur by very small degrees over a long period of time.
You need some scoreboard items that are granular enough to identify those incremental gains.
On the other hand, some things may not appear to be changing at all and then all of a sudden will show a quantum improvement.
Both incremental and breakthrough results are valuable, as long as you
don’t become attached to one or the other.
