“Kaizen is a Japanese term that translates to, ‘continuous improvement’ or, ‘change for the better.’
This philosophy suggests focusing on small improvements rather than focusing on the overall achievement. The primary idea behind kaizen is to continuously seek ways to improve processes, products, or services incrementally – all while understanding that success is not one big thing but many small successes.
Oftentimes, some of us fail to celebrate the small wins because we think they aren’t worth recognizing.
We forget that the massive wins we think we should celebrate are a product of many small wins. Focusing on the small achievements helps us set achievable goals and realize that every day, we are moving closer towards the goal.
And every step of the way should be celebrated.”
