Doing Small Things Well

All good work is done the way ants do things, little by little. -Lafcadio Hearn There's a saying that goes, "If you do the little things well, you'll do the big ones better." There are amazing things we want to accomplish and so we arrange our lives in such a way to position ourselves to accomplish these big goals. This usually means we have to continually work toward our long term goals and take a series of small steps until we have prepared and are ready to take a quantum leap. The days go by and we take small step after small step in the right direction. Although we may not have had anything happen that in our minds constitutes a quantum leap, we can see the smaller signs of progress. But ` we want to see more results from all of our hard work. Taking small steps is great, but we want so much more. We are ready to make some significant strides forward. And, this is where some resentment, perhaps only a small amount, can set in. Reaching Goals Whenever you are working toward accomplishing anything, you have to be happy taking the small steps. You need to be proud and appreciate every small step you take because that is really how you set yourself up to accomplish what you want. Why` Because how you take the small steps really matters. The more energy and passion you are able to put into each small step, the better. And, you can really be inspired to give everything you can to the small steps when you appreciate the importance of each and everyone you take. Every step you take is important and when you are able to do even the small things well with the utmost quality, it is amazing how much progress you can really make. Your mindset can`t just be one of `getting things done` or quantity over quality. It doesn`t matter how much you get done if you don`t do it in a high quality way. It just means you will have more steps added on to your journey because when it comes to reaching goals, there have to be a certain number of high quality small steps taken. So, you are much better off doing each small step in a great way and appreciating each small step you take. How to use this
