Take a minute alone after a big win before you tell anyone. Let it be yours first.

A win changes shape the second it becomes news. Once you post it or text it, part of your attention moves to how people are responding, and the thing you actually did slides into the background. That first minute, before anyone knows, is the only time you get the plain version of it.

Next time something goes right, sit with it for sixty seconds before you reach for your phone. Notice what it feels like in your chest, not what the caption should say. Then tell whoever you want.
