Yesterday, I treated myself to lunch out with a gal pal. What a wonderful decision that was!
Both she and I work management level jobs, and share similar responsibilities at work. Our occasional lunchtime get-togethers are a fab way to offer each other peer support. Amidst yesterday's chit chat, I mused, "I sometimes wonder if what I do is really making a difference."
She shared with me a great concept for gaining perspective when she asks herself that same question--referring to it as a "blues file." In it, she keeps letters from consumers who have written notes of gratitude, photos of projects she's seen through from start to finish, and emails demonstrating where progress has been made. What a great idea, huh? An at-a-glance resource like this truly can demonstrate the impact one has made.
