Start this file

Here’s what to do today:

First:

Start a file in your email application which says the following:

‘Mentors & encouragement’

Next:

Whenever you get an email thanking you, admiring you, or congratulating you – save it in this file.

After:

During the tough times / days / challenging periods in startup land, read these emails you have gathered over time.

They will help you battle on. Today I got one such email saying ‘I rock’ – for a little thing I did for someone. I felt really good about it. So I saved it in said file.

you_rock_you_rule

* This may sound egotistical, but in world full of knockers, and negativity it’s a little thing which helps us stay the course.

  1. This is a great idea. It rocks. Have already done it. It’s v2.0 of that box you keep with old birthday cards, letters and pictures- the one you dig out when you are feeling a bit down.
    Great idea- thanks!
