The Power of Micro Actions
Big goals can feel overwhelming, but lasting success is built one small step at a time. Micro actions—tiny, intentional steps—have the power to create massive momentum. Whether it’s sending one email, making a five-minute call, or writing a single paragraph, each action compounds over time. These simple tasks build confidence, clarify direction, and help you stay consistent.
When you act, even in the smallest way, you shift from thinking into doing—and that’s where the magic begins. Don’t wait for the perfect moment. Start with what you have, where you are, and do one small thing today. Success doesn’t come from giant leaps. It comes from showing up again and again, one micro action at a time.
💭 Choose one Micro-action today that reflects the kind of leader you want to be. Showing up is a big one for me. As a member of an organization, I have to show up for the meetings. All the meetings. It has made for a few very difficult decisions and a few amazing experiences.
Please let me know in the comments which micro-action you have chosen.

My micro-action today was pressing “publish” on a post that reflects where I’m headed this spring. I’m focusing on nurture as my word of the year—choosing to reset with intention, one small step at a time. Clearing clutter, making smoothie bowls, rebuilding skating strength—it’s all adding up to something more.

I love the idea of micro actions. It’s very easy for me to get overwhelmed when there’s a lot to do, or in a big project. I like to make a todo list and break it all down to smaller “micro actions”. It’s very satisfying to be able to cross a completed task off and feel like I’m accomplishing something.
My micro action I’d blogging every day. It makes me feel productive, even if no one reads my post. I’m doing this for me, and nobody else. If people get some joy from my posts then great!
If I did not read your post today, I would not have to make ANY commitment! However, since I did (and I am glad I did), I will make a daily micro-committment.
Starting today, I will NOT leave dishes in the sink over night. I will make sure it is empty before I go to bed.
Let’s see how I do with this!
Such a beautiful reminder. Even five quiet minutes with my crochet hook can turn my whole day around.
