Small change: take the wins

It’s often said that while good news travels slowly, bad news has wings. This might be true – but too often the problem is that good news doesn’t travel at all. We simply forget about it and move on.

There may be good evolutionary reasons for such behaviour, but it misses a huge opportunity. Good news injects positivity and helps retain (or regain) a sense of balance. Even little wins can have a galvanising effect. They are the cracks through which light gets in.

Change rests on the belief that a better future is possible. So take the wins. They might sometimes look insignificant, but one after another they’re helping you get where you need to go.

Something to consider: what little win can we claim this week?
