Merry Christmas, this is My Present to YOu; “You yourself, as much as anybody in the universe, deserve your love and affection.”
The Buddha Reward yourself: * See a movie in the middle of the day when the theater’s not full.
* Sit at the beach when it’s empty because everyone else is at work.
* Sleep in until noon, have a leisurely lunch and do nothing for the rest of the day.
* Spend the day with a friend or family member you never get to see because you work so much.
* You work hard for your money,
* Buy something that will make your job more enjoyable like a new picture frame for your desk, an electronic daytimer or a snack-grab bag to keep at work for re-energizing.
Gift Yourself
Buy yourself several gift certificates and tuck them away as rewards as you need them.
Gardening
Plant a tree or flowering plant in your yard or flower box to remind yourself of your accomplishment. Fill your room, or your house, with fresh flowers.
Relaxing
Take a long, luxurious bath while sipping champagne and listening to your favorite tunes or reading a novel. If you’re a bibliophile, spend all day in a used bookstore. Catch up on last week’s crossword puzzles while hanging out in coffee shop.. Get Away
Go on a weekend trip to visit a friend you haven’t seen in some time. Take a train or boat anywhere and pay attention to the scenery, enjoying the moment (s)
(Women) Feel Pretty
Get a makeover at a high-end makeup counter. Try new shades of makeup you wouldn’t normally choose.
Furry Friends
Spend a day pet shopping, even if you don’t want to buy a new friend. Just spending time holding puppies and kitties can be delightful.
The best rewards are determined by what you value most. Is it time alone? A gourmet meal? Salon services? Deciding on a reward ahead of time provides great incentives for accomplishing your goals. Selecting your own reward often results in as much fun as the actual reward. It doesn’t matter what you choose, as long as it means something to you.
God Bless
