Reward yourself
<span class="html-content"> <p>Am I the only one who has observed the trend of people not giving themselves gifts? </p><p>This is perhaps one of the craziest things we do as humans. Don't worry, I am not pointing fingers because I've been there before. Funny how we go wild to please people on their birthdays, weddings, child naming ceremonies, and even when our guys are released from prison. </p><p>However, we tend to have this sense of withdrawal when it concerns us. </p><p>Quick question: What's the point of the grind if you don't get to enjoy yourself? A pat on the back with the famous "well done" smile is not enough. </p><p>Give yourself an orgasmic treat. I didn't say fornicate, I meant please yourself! </p><p>Discard the thought that you don't deserve gifts. You deserve to be happy, and you should go big on making yourself happy. Kindly note that you don't need to be done with that task or project before you reward yourself. Sometimes you've got to play hard while working hard. Some think that rewarding themselves would distract them from their targets, but I don't buy that idea. Yo! You only live once, so live well.</p> <p>I have this crazy belief that you should reward yourself even when you fail. This stems from my belief that there's no specific time to reward yourself.</p><p><br></p> <p>Failure is information!</p> <p>If you just failed, you just learned.</p><p><br></p> <p>Learn Unlearn Relearn </p> </span>
