The Cumulative Effect: Why Your Hard Work Is Paying Off (Even If You Can’t See It Yet)

Send me a text! I'd love to hear your comments, what you'd like to hear on future episodes and your questions.

Success doesn’t happen overnight—it builds through consistent effort, unseen momentum, and small wins that stack up over time. In this episode, I share my favorite pep talk about The Cumulative Effect—why your hard work is paying off, even if you can’t see it yet. If you’ve ever felt like your efforts aren’t leading anywhere fast enough, this episode will remind you that every action is a deposit into your future success. From the unseen struggles of icons like Viola Davis to the disciplined training of Olympic athletes, I’ll show you how true success comes from mastery, consistency, and trusting the process—even when progress feels slow.

Reflection Questions:

1. What is one long term goal you're working toward right now? How can you reframe your progress to focus on consistency and mastery? 
2. And to just get you juiced up about this, who's one of your favorite people– a musician, an artist, a writer, an entrepreneur, a climate change expert? What do you think their journey actually looked like behind the scenes, and how does that change your perspective on your own journey?
3.  What small actions are you currently taking that feel pretty insignificant but that could lead to big results over time, and how can you stay committed to those, even when progress feels slow? 
4. If you knew for certain that your current efforts would pay off in a year, how would you show up differently today? 
5.  Where in your life or business have you been measuring progress in days instead of seasons. 
6. How would your mindset shift if you zoomed out and looked at the bigger picture?
