Small wins become powerful when they start arriving in the same direction.

Small wins scattered across unrelated areas produce a pleasant feeling and very little. The same number of small wins pointed the same way start reinforcing each other, so that each one makes the next slightly easier and the direction becomes visible. What looks like a sudden change in someone’s life is usually this, accumulated quietly over a couple of years.

Look at what you have been doing well lately and ask whether it points anywhere. If the wins are scattered, choose one direction and let the next few land there. Consistency of aim usually matters more than the size of any individual step.
