From Chaos to Enjoyment

Do you thrive in chaos? Or, do you feel your life is a constant state of chaos?

If you thrive on chaos, you’re tied to the result. It’s the rush from closing a deal, negotiating that big contract, and operating under pressure to get things done. A deadline gives us the necessity to do something in a certain timeframe. We’re willing to take care of it at all costs. It’s exciting. It can be fun. The part that’s missing is that, there is usually no celebration. There’s no demarcation line to say, “Hey, we did it.” We typically rush to the next thing. The next big client. The next big project.

We forget to take it all in, be grateful for the opportunity, and reap the rewards for a job well done. When we lack celebration of the milestones in our lives, at work, and even our relationships, there is no acknowledgement or validation of all the hard work and effort we put into something.

When was the last time you celebrated a big milestone at work? An anniversary with your lover or even a long friendship? When we don’t celebrate, we take for granted everything that has happened.

When we don’t celebrate, we feel that our work and effort goes unrecognized. We then carry this into our next project, or big goal.

Close your eyes. Take a couple deep breaths. Think about everything you have to celebrate today, this week, this month.

It’s time to appreciate you.
It’s time to appreciate who you have become.
It’s time to appreciate all that you have done.
It’s time to appreciate all those who made it happen.
As we end the first quarter of 2018, where have you made great strides? Where can you improve?

By taking time to celebrate your achievements, you enjoy life again. It’s time to share your accomplishments and enjoyment with others.

This week, how can you celebrate and share your many accomplishments with your team, your family, your friends, and those closest to you?

Wishing you an abundant, joyful and prosperous day!
