How to Keep Going When You’re Not Winning
Assess Your Effort Honestly
Are you giving it your all? Identify one area where you can push harder and commit to it for the next week.
Focus on Small Wins
Break down your larger goal into smaller milestones. Celebrate every improvement—no matter how minor.
Revisit Your Process
Write out your current approach and identify gaps. Are there inefficiencies? Areas where you’re not as disciplined? Make one adjustment this week.
Schedule Reflection Time
Block 15 minutes at the end of each day to journal. What went well? What didn’t? Use this as a tool to stay self-aware and motivated.
Lean on Your Team or Network
Share your challenges with someone you trust. Often, external perspectives can reignite your confidence or spark new ideas.
Create a Visual Reminder
Write down why you started and what you’re working toward. Keep it visible as a daily motivator.
Measure Effort Over Outcomes
Track what you’re doing to improve, not just the results. Progress comes from consistent action, even if the results take time to show.
