Monday Motivation - Every step forward counts.

Happy Monday, IABX community!

"Anything that moves the needle closer to a goal counts." — Brandi Bradley

This Monday, let’s give ourselves permission to value every single step forward, no matter how small. Brandi Bradley’s words are a much-needed reminder that progress isn’t always about giant leaps. Sometimes, it’s the quiet, consistent movement that truly gets us to where we want to be.

When we’re working toward something meaningful—writing a book, building a business, learning a new skill—it’s easy to feel like we’re not doing enough. We might compare our pace to someone else’s highlight reel, or feel discouraged when we don’t see instant results. But the truth is: every action that nudges us closer to our goals matters.

Did you outline a new idea? That counts.

Did you take ten minutes to research something useful? That counts.

Did you rest, reflect, and re-center so you could come back stronger tomorrow? Yes, that counts too.

Progress isn’t always flashy or immediate. It often looks like consistency, patience, and persistence. And when you keep showing up—especially on the days when you don’t feel like it—you’re moving the needle in powerful ways.

So this week, don’t downplay your progress just because it isn’t big or loud. Stay focused. Stay steady. And trust that every step forward is worth celebrating.

Because it all counts.

Wishing you a purposeful and productive Monday.

Have a great week!
