Give yourself a gift
Flowers for your mum, a box of chocolate from a business partner, a book for the girlfriend, a cake from the boss, a toy for a niece,... Well, we give and get gifts to and from others. How many of you give gifts to yourself, though? Once again:
How many of you give gifts to yourself?
There is just a few of you raising hand now, saying "me, me, me", "yes, I do", right? This short article should change that. Achieving such an ambitious goal requires your activity.
Thus I challenge you: put a note to your calendar, day before your birthday to give yourself a gift. It can be anything. A walk, a coffee with a friend, a massage, a haircut or a chocolate bar. ANYTHING that will put a smile on your face. Or even better, give yourself a gift just any day, without a reason, just because.
Tomorrow. No need to wait for your birthday.
Does it feel strange? I get you. Up until recently I would feel the same. But then I realised that there is one more ball to juggle, when it comes to time management. The selfish one, the one with big "me, myself and I" on it.
How to find time for it, though?
Well, there is no universal recipe. Why do not you start with an easy step and start giving yourself gifts? They do not have to be expensive, nor material at all. Like writing this article and feeling good about doing something good for all of you.
