In The ‘Daily Life’: How to Create Compounding Successes

• Reaching your greatest potential doesn’t operate in a single direction at all. Instead, it works as a positive feedback loop whereby successes among those around us create a cascade of compounding successes, what I call a “Daily cycle.”

• We’ve all heard the term vicious cycle used to describe what happens when negative events cascade and compound. An employee doesn’t like her job, so she becomes disengaged, which makes her do poorly at work, which makes her dislike her job even more. A great home run hitter strikes out three times in a game, loses confidence and becomes timid with his swing, which leads to more strikeouts the next game and so forth.

• In the Daily cycle, we often work together. We create opportunities for others and recognize them for their contributions.

• When we commit to making others better, there is no limit to what we can accomplish both individually and collectively.
