Always take the time to reward yourself...just because. Normally we save this pleasure for either a birthday, promotion, etc., but it is mandatory that you reward yourself as much as possible.
Normally, I will take myself to a movie, buy myself some flowers from the guy on the corner, take myself to a museum, or a great lunch. Lunch is my favorite reward because I can enjoy an establishment I wouldn't normally go to, and most importantly, lunch is cheaper! I can get the dinner meal for 1/2 off at lunch. I will take this moment to recommend the Filet Mignon from Flemings :)
Rewarding yourself makes you feel good about yourself and gives you the opportunity to network with new people. When you fly solo, you can indulge in a drink, that will most surely wear off by the time you have finished eating. Taking time out for yourself is definitely a reward for busy single moms. So while you're planning your next off day, this would be categorized as a personal holiday.
As always, stay true to yourself and love yourself...why??? Who can love you better than YOU?!
Indeed. Due to the undying demands of everyday life we seem to overlook THE most important thing or person of all - ourselves.
