My Wednesday Wish for You: Relish the Accomplishment

We are a culture of “what’s next?”—crossing one finish line only to immediately eye the next starting block. But when we treat accomplishments like pit stops instead of milestones, we miss a vital opportunity to recharge, reflect, and recognize what it took to get there.

That major project? It didn’t complete itself. It was the result of effort, coordination, problem- solving, and likely a few late nights or tough calls. And whether it was a solo effort or a team win, it deserves more than a fleeting moment before being buried by the next deadline.

When we pause to celebrate—even the small stuff—we fuel our energy for what’s ahead. We reinforce what’s working. We build a culture where people feel seen, valued, and motivated to keep going.

So this week, take a moment. For yourself, for your team. Reflect on what you accomplished. Call out the obstacles you overcame. Appreciate the growth it required. Let celebration be part of the process, not just a reward that never quite arrives.

What can you celebrate this week?

Relish it. Recognize it. Recharge from it.

You’ve earned it.

Are you investing the time and resources to grow personally and professionally?
