Recognize Small Successes

How do you deal with members who are discouraged, tired, or simply not enthused? One way is to make sure that your Grange recognizes small successes. We often forget that big successes are the result of little steps that lead to achievement.
Recognize the little things that your members may take for granted. Have little celebrations for small victories that your Grange achieves. As an example, if you have trouble getting a quorum several times a year, give each member a cupcake with a candle at your sixth meeting in a row.
Find the little things that show your Grange is moving in the right direction and recognize those little steps. It will make things more fun and will improve your member’s attitude over time. Get your Lecturer and other officers involved in finding little successes and the big successes will follow.
Recognize small successes in your Grange and watch the incredible happen!
