Stage 6) Learning To Flourish
Take Some Time To Reward Yourself
Celebration is important for reinforcing behavior because it triggers the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and reward. This release reinforces the positive feelings associated with the achievement, making it more likely that the behavior will be repeated. By celebrating, you create a positive feedback loop that strengthens motivation and helps establish long-term habits.
Reflect on your growth by reviewing your key achievements and challenges overcome during the programme.
Share your successes with peers, mentors, or a support network to celebrate and gain reinforcement.
Create a personal ritual, like journaling or treating yourself, to acknowledge your progress and set intentions for the future.
