Every now and then you need to give yourself some credit…and I’m choosing today to pat myself on the back!

Most of the time, like most of you, I simply get on with things.  But since I’ve been working for myself and with my mentor, I’ve come to realise that it is important to celebrate your successes – from my perspective, doing so reminds me how far I’ve come and provides the encouragement I need to continue forward.

Over the past couple of weeks, in addition to running The Tax Chic, teaching Body Pump and First Aid and just living in general, I’ve celebrated the following achievements:

• Spending two days with six accounting teachers visiting from China and taking them through the approach we use in vocational education
• Launching Business in Heels – South West Victoria
• Presenting a workshop and hosting an expo display at BizFest, and
• Participating in Xero Accelerate and Xerocon 2015

…it certainly has been a busy time.   While this doesn’t make me any more special than the next person, only I know just what I’ve needed to do in order to make it through – and this is why we should never compare ourselves to others!

After the Business in Heels – South West Victoria announcement, I received some absolutely wonderful and positive feedback, not only on the concept but directed to me and the way I live life – I am so very thankful to those who took the time to let me know their thoughts, it was very kind.

Now it’s your turn, have you reflected on your successes of late? I’d love to hear your stories, either in this forum or by private message – go on, celebrate your success!

Regards
