As a newbie at Wealthy Affiliates, I have learned that progress is not always immediate. It can be frustrating when you are putting in the work but not seeing the results you want. But recently, I had a breakthrough moment in my physical rehab from shoulder surgery that taught me a valuable lesson about patience, persistence, and celebrating the small victories.

My surgeon had instructed me to start physical therapy by lifting only two pounds. It was a seemingly insignificant amount, but I couldn't even manage that at first. My shoulder was so weak and painful that lifting even a feather felt like an impossible task.

However, with the help of my physical therapist, I gradually worked my way up to lifting two pounds. It took several weeks of daily exercise, but I finally did it. When I lifted those two pounds, it felt like a huge accomplishment. It was a small victory, but it meant that progress was being made.

This experience taught me several lessons that have been invaluable on my Wealthy Affiliate journey.

1. Celebrate the small victories

It's easy to get caught up in the big picture and forget to celebrate the small victories along the way. Whether it's lifting two pounds or getting one more follower on your blog, take the time to acknowledge and celebrate your progress.

2. Patience and persistence pay off
It can be frustrating when you're putting in the work but not seeing the results you want. But progress takes time, and it's important to be patient and persistent. Keep pushing forward, even if it feels like you're not making progress.

3. Progress is progress, no matter how small
It's easy to get discouraged when progress is slow. But even if it's just lifting two pounds or writing one more blog post, progress is progress. Every small step forward is a step in the right direction.

Lifting two pounds during my physical rehab from shoulder surgery taught me valuable lessons that have been instrumental in my Wealthy Affiliate journey. Celebrating the small victories, being patient and persistent, and acknowledging that progress is progress no matter how small, are all crucial to achieving success in any endeavor. So, keep pushing forward and celebrate every victory along the way!
