Celebrate the behavior you want, and you’ll get more of it. ”

“We often celebrate achievements or milestones, which is a great way to appreciate what we have accomplished, especially when we do it collectively as a team. ”

“But celebration can also serve another purpose, which is to reinforce behaviors. BJ Fogg, PhD says that celebration is how you rewire your brain to build new habits. That means you can’t wait until you see the result before you celebrate – you have to celebrate the behavior immediately after doing it. ”

“So rather than punishing behavior you don’t want on your team, celebrate the behaviors you want to get more people acting that way. The same applies to your own behavior; I used to beat myself up when I did things “wrong”, but now I believe that it is more effective to celebrate even hints of the behavior I want. ”

“Speaking of which, I’m going to go do a few sets of kettlebell swings to try to keep building that habit for myself, and then I’ll celebrate that I got off the couch to do so :)”
