Leverage small wins to achieve big success!

1. THE TECHNOLOGY OF CELEBRATION™
How Paying Attention to Small Wins Fuels Big Success

2. Executives and entrepreneurs tend to swing for the fence, and
often only claim success when the ball goes out of the park.

3. But what creates big wins is usually an accumulation of small
victories over time.
Without a way to celebrate small victories, the pursuit of long-term
goals can feel like a trudge. In a slow economy, when funds are hard
to find, when sales are even harder, when your goal seems to move
farther away with every step, even the most confident executive can
start to feel a little discouraged.

4. That’s why celebration is so important in business.
So important, in fact, we believe it deserves its own technology.
Kim Sawyer, Executive Coach and
President of theWealth Source®,
has developed a simple system called
The Technology of Celebration™.
Celebration is an acknowledgment and appreciation of value. Our
process leverages the value of celebrating small wins in achieving big
success.

5. Here’s how it works:
Set up a spreadsheet with the following headings:
Date
Value It Adds
WIN to Others Share
What It Adds
to My Life
How It Makes
the World Better
What Qualities
Enabled It

6. Under “WIN,” enter a concise statement that expresses the essence
of your accomplishment in words that have impact for you. For
example, imagine you are trying to acquire a new company, a long
and uncertain process. But today you completed a thorough strategic
review that verified their financial statements. That’s a win!
“Finished reviewing
acquisition financials”

7. In the second column, you might describe how it added to your
life by confirming your instincts that this acquisition is a good deal,
strengthening your negotiating position and bringing you a step closer
to your vision. Besides, it feels good!
“Validated my insticts that the
acquisition is a good deal”

8. Next, you could note that your win adds value to your partners
and employees by giving them greater confidence in you and the
acquisition – and that perhaps it gives your spouse and family more
increased hope for more prosperity and security.
“Moves the company one
step closer to a higher level of
prosperity, and gives my family
some relief from the stress”

9. Then be bold and allow yourself a bit of healthy grandiosity by writing
that the win makes the world a little better by creating new wealth
and opportunity. No win is insignificant; it always has distant ripple
effects that you may never know about.
“Creates value for customers
and shareholders; enables us
to fulfill our mission”

10. The next column is where you get to inventory the capabilities
and qualities that have been revealed by the win. This knowledge
about yourself is pivotal to your further success. In this case, it might
demonstrate your expertise in business finance and your rigorous
attention to detail.
“Experience, leadership
ability, negotiation skills,
financial acumen, patience,
perserverance”

11. Finally, when you share your win with someone else, you make the
celebration tangible and emotionally impactful. Remember that a
success shared is doubled, while a struggle shared is halved.
Who you shared your win with

12. The Technology of Celebration™ is jet fuel for your success, and is even
more powerful when used with your teams and organizations. The
energy generated by small victories fuels the achievement of big ones.
