Reward Yourself, dude!
Heard or seen folks who grind and kick their ass whole-year-round, sometimes, reachable 24x7 even if he deserves to recoup that Melatonin we need to top-up? I know quite a number way beyond my pair of hands. Sadly, I hardly see them take a break and REWARD themselves. BUT WHO am I to ask. Reward Yourself, dude๐๐๐
Human nature runs this way. You exert everything and dedicate your time for a task out of the ordinary. Of course, you would hope for a reward, in whatever form, regardless of the monetary value. It could even be a pat on the back, a commendation, a promotion, a pay increase, even gift certificates๐๐๐
After all, it is human nature that UNTIL and UNLESS we truly see the results of WHAT we did accomplish, our mind does NOT set itself in the proper form and keep self-motivated. So, WHEN you show more productivity at work [a.k.a. EXTRA MILE], you expect the reward in the form you feel that is commensurate and just just๐๐๐
Sometimes, though, we get mixed up, mixing CRAVINGS ands REWARDS but they are worlds apart, dude. Similarly, WHEN you start eating healthy OR exercising regularly, you expect your body weight to reduce. However, these REWARDS take time. Since then, it has been practically impossible to keep oneself that self-motivated✅✅✅
Now, WHAT's our takeaway? Set a REWARD before you commence working on that task OR deliverable. Typically, your work might start at 9 a.m. and it finishes at 5 p.m., that normal 9-5 work. Then you start asking yourself, "WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO AS A REWARD FOR YOURSELF AFTER YOUR EFFORT TODAY?" Thing is, DON'T treat yourself as an enemy BUT like family, like your own. REWARD YOURSELF, dude when you deserve it❗❗❗
