You work like crazy to accomplish a goal, complete it, and it isn't as fulfilling as you thought. You berate yourself because it's not enough and then set the bar higher. Sound familiar? Welcome to the formula for burnout, depression, and dissatisfaction. If we forget to celebrate, we don't get the dopamine hit that completes the cycle of accomplish. So we push harder thinking the next thing will make us feel better only to discover it doesn't. Celebrating is important. It's not about boastfulness, or pride or conceit. It's taking time to acknowledge how far we've come, no matter how far we have to go.
