Who knew this would be a necessary step to articulate in the Business Planning process? We readily celebrate others, and yet we neglect to do the same for ourselves.

When we take the time to recognize that we’ve accomplished something – finished a project ahead of schedule, exceeded a sales goal, or discovered a way to save the company money – inside we experience a positive vibration that raises our confidence, establishes us at a higher level of productivity, and sets us up for additional successes.

Instead of waiting until the end of the year, and only celebrating if your one big financial goal is achieved, identify ways to celebrate along the way.

STOP NOW and make a list of ways to celebrate at all levels, from absolutely free to major payouts. If you have a team, do separate lists for you individually to celebrate, and for the team to celebrate. Engage them in the process of coming up with rewards.

We celebrate you participating in the 12 Days of Business Planning, and we sincerely hope that you find new levels of success as a result in the coming year!
