Welcome back to the May You Thrive challenge here on Tea with a Taurus. Today’s focus is something powerful—and often overlooked: celebrating your small wins.

Let’s be real for a second…

We’re constantly told to aim high, dream big, and “go all in.” And while those are beautiful intentions, they can also make us feel like our smaller efforts don’t count. But here’s the truth:

👉 They do.

In fact, it’s the small, often invisible moments—the ones no one claps for—that build the foundation for bigger success. Those are the wins we’re honoring today.

✨ What counts as a “small win”?

• Drinking water instead of soda
  
• Texting someone back when you’re mentally tired
  
• Getting out of bed when it felt impossible
  
• Taking a break when your body asked for one
  
• Saying “no” to something you would’ve said “yes” to out of guilt
  
• Finishing a task you’ve been avoiding
  
• Noticing your self-talk and choosing kindness instead
  

These wins matter deeply. They’re signs of progress, self-awareness, and growth. They’re proof that you’re showing up—even when it’s hard.

🌿 Why this matters

Small wins:

• Build momentum
  
• Increase motivation
  
• Strengthen your relationship with yourself
  
• Reinforce your ability to make good decisions
  

Celebrating them tells your brain:

“This matters. Keep going.”

And when you start paying attention to the small victories? You’ll see just how much progress you’re already making.

💬 Today’s Affirmation

“Every small win is a step toward something greater. I honor my effort, even when no one else sees it.”

Repeat this out loud. Write it down. Let it soak in.

📝 Journal Prompt

Today’s prompt is simple but powerful:

“What’s one small win from today that I can be proud of?”

Then ask yourself:

• What helped me make that happen?
  
• What does that moment say about who I’m becoming?
  
• How would it feel to celebrate these small wins more often?
  

Let your answer be a reminder that thriving isn’t about giant leaps—it’s about consistent, intentional steps in the direction of your well-being.

🌟 A gentle challenge…

Drop your small win in the comments or write it somewhere you can see it. Let it be proof of your progress. And tomorrow? We keep thriving.

You’re doing amazing.

See you for Day 10.
