Have you ever felt guilty about accepting a reward?

Ready on to learn how to fully celebrate your successes and remove all guilt in your life!<\/p>\n

Celebrate Success by Learning to Reward Yourself<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019ve ever felt like you \u201ccan\u2019t\u201d or \u201cwon\u2019t\u201d reward yourself for your hard work, I\u2019m going to give you three simple steps to follow to remove all guilt\u2026 so you can celebrate each of your successes and feel great about rewarding yourself.<\/p>\n

1. The golden rule of rewarding yourself<\/h3>\n

When it comes to finding ways to reward yourself, follow this golden rule: do what works for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s it!<\/p>\n

For most people, they don\u2019t have a \u2018play jar\u2019 to spoil themselves. They don\u2019t take time for themselves. They don\u2019t focus on loving themselves.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t focus on that feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment for more than three seconds before it becomes doubt, judgment and \u201cWhat\u2019s the next thing?\u201d<\/p>\n

The reason I incorporate rewards so heavily into my \u201cUltimate Life Makeover System\u201d<\/a> web class is because number 1, many times it\u2019s tangible. When you buy that dress you\u2019ve wanted or that jacket you\u2019ve wanted and you see it in your closet all of the time, you\u2019ll say, \u201cWow, it\u2019s worth doing the things I committed to doing!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

And number 2, rewarding yourself for your accomplishments gives you the motivation, drive, and self-confidence to keep moving towards your goals with momentum.<\/p>\n

Many people won\u2019t give themselves a little reward here and there, which is why it\u2019s so important to take the time to do this consciously.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the simplest way I teach to do this: Set an action and a deadline for that action to be completed,, set a reward, and when you complete that action, take your reward! Then\u2026 repeat this over and over and over again.<\/p>\n

So, what works or WILL work for you when it comes to patting yourself on the back for a job well done?<\/p>\n

2. Redefine rewards<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you believe that you should only get a reward for doing something difficult, then you need to rethink this belief immediately.<\/p>\n

The bottom line is if you associate rewards with something difficult, you created that belief.<\/p>\n

In other words, you were taught that if you do something unpleasant or difficult, you deserve and should get a reward.<\/p>\n

But then what if you don\u2019t do something difficult? Well, you don\u2019t get one\u2026 right?<\/p>\n

This is faulty thinking, and something that holds a lot of people back. You can and should get rewarded for accomplishing things you actually enjoy doing, too.<\/p>\n

For example, if you ENJOY your work, and you are successful with it, guess what? You should be REWARDED for that!<\/p>\n

You shouldn\u2019t have to do work that you hate, and that is unpleasant and difficult simply to make money because you\u2019ve linked rewards with unpleasantness.<\/p>\n

If this is something you believe, then very unconsciously you have linked getting rewards from unpleasantness\u2014and this singular belief is holding you back from enjoying your work, your life, and blocking you from experiencing true happiness.<\/p>\n

3. Move beyond \u201ceither\/or\u201d<\/h3>\n

If you associate rewards with pain and suffering, then you\u2019re living in an either\/or world.<\/p>\n

Remember what I said in my book Secrets of the Millionaire Mind:<\/em> most people live in an either\/or world. Either it\u2019s money or<\/em> happiness, money or<\/em> spirituality, money or<\/em> health, money or<\/em> free time, money or<\/em> this, money or<\/em> that.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s either\/or.<\/p>\n

How about we do what we love? How about we enjoy what we do? How about we do very pleasant and wonderful things and we get a reward as well?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Imagine this is your new rule: I can do what I love and get rewarded.<\/p>\n

I can do what I enjoy and get rewarded in all kinds of ways, not just satisfaction and accomplishment (because the mind doesn\u2019t hold onto these for longer than 3 seconds).<\/p>\n

Instead, write down what you want in your life including all the \u201cluxuries\u201d you\u2019ve ever dreamed of. They could be material. They could be any kinds of things, but you\u2019ve got to allow yourself to enjoy them.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you why many people don\u2019t do this: it\u2019s because the conditioned, fear-based mind doesn\u2019t want that. Because if you\u2019re really nice to you and really good to you, then what is your mind supposed to do?<\/p>\n

Its job is to look for the problems; to mainly look for what\u2019s wrong. You must consciously step in and stop this in its tracks!<\/strong><\/p>\n

By unlinking rewards from unpleasantness, and instead believing that you deserve to be rewarded for ALL the great things you accomplish, you\u2019ll begin operating on a higher energy plane – and living a more abundant, happy, fulfilled life in the process.<\/p>\n

Now it\u2019s your turn! How do you fare when it comes to taking rewards for your hard work? Are you able to fully celebrate your successes and reward yourself for the things you enjoy doing? If you\u2019ve got no problem showering yourself with love and spoiling yourself, maybe you can help others in the community by sharing your story.<\/p>\n
