My next reward is a new purse. Something a bit more trendy to tote my lipstick in. And I'm getting a new hair cut with shimmery bronze highlights. And an eye brow wax. I want more eye opening, dramatic brows. And teeth whitening. I definitely want to brighten my french roasted- stained buckers and get rid of their Screaming Yellow Zonker yellowish hue. New hair, new eyes, new teeth and new jeans. I can't go out anymore with my Marcia Brady dungarees.
I'll stroll into a denim emporium and select a perfectly fitted pair of jeans. Oh, and new reading glasses. Not the kind I pick up at the Dollar Store, but hip specks, like my ob-gyn wore. A lens that demurely whispers, "I was a bloated, blown up ass perched on parchment paper just three short months ago and then I got mad." Then, I'll slowly tilt my forehead down giving a better view of my coiffed brows, auburn threaded hair and I'll flash a smile, revealing teeth whiter than Breakstone sour cream.
You should have, at least, four or five rewards in mind, with one already redeemed. They don't have to be big things, but they could be if you have the cash. Botox? A spa day? David Yurman jewelry? Big things are great, however, the little things are such as important: a new bra, renting a movie, ordering monogrammed stationery. Treating yourself speaks volumes about you, your self esteem, and how you approach life. The act of taking good care of you will transcend in the daily food choices you make, which will result in the success you set out to attain. It all weaves together in some self actualized tapestry that I can't explain but that I have experienced. Start your rewards list and follow through with it.
Did you know a brow wax is the cost equivalent to 4 Big Macs, 1 Starbuck's Maple Macchiato and 1 box of Suzy Q's?
