hello LinkedIn Community TGIF I want to help you wrap up this week with a little bow and you may say Jenny there's no need for a bow this week I had a horrible week and I want to disagree what if you were to put on your cap and let's put on our growth mindset cap and let's L do a reflection and a a bit of a groundhog moment to ask ourselves what am I celebrating about this week something that I did how I showed up that I'm very proud of however minuscule that may seem to you make sure that you reflect on that and that you make a list in your mind or on paper or in your device about what that was because without that self- acknowledgement my friends we tend to go on to the next thing and we just ignore all these accomplishments that we had and keep focusing only on the pile of stuff that needs to get done so let's give ourselves the fuel we need to continue going by filling our cup and one of the ways that I teach my community to do it is by self- acknowledging what they have accomplished and how they're showing up and how they're being every day so what was that for you last week this past week the second piece of this is to reflect on again with your your growth mindset cap on what would I have done differently based on my activities the interactions I had the conversations I held with my team or my manager or somebody else in my in my private life what would I have done differently reflect on that because we want to do it with a growth mindset from a place where we're not shaming where we're not blaming and we're not looking to put somebody else down but rather from a place of learning what would I I do differently because the one thing that we always have the ability to do is to choose how we react and I would say to choose how we respond versus simply reacting unconsciously so if we are aware that there were things I could have done differently then jat those down what would those be how would you have wished you showed up for someone instead of the reaction that they got from you in in the moment now that you have the time to reflect what would that look like and once you do this exercise of giving yourself acknowledgement and reflecting on what would you have done differently from a place of love and compassion not blame shame or trying to point the finger what comes up and when you're done what can you do to share that with your team with other team members who have also done great work or showed up in a powerful way this week so they also feel your love and your compassion and they feel encouraged by you and valued by you as a leader so that's how we want to close the week I invite you to use this practice moving forward it's very powerful it works and just like we would love for our environment to give us that feedback it's gorgeous that you would give this feedback to your team and to the people that you interacted with with whom you are proud to serve every single day so with that have a great weekend live with purpose live with joy I'll see you
