Land a new client? Dishwasher working again? Stopped eating pork rinds by the bagful? No matter what the reason, occasion or budget, here are some fabulous ways to celebrate your success!
Do a happy dance
A lottery win isn’t the only reason for shaking what your mamma gave you. Find your inner cheerleader and raise those arms high above your head as you spell out Y-E-A-H M-E!
Call in the professionals
Use this positive power to help plan for your future and call in a life coach and/or financial planner to ensure your path towards success continues. You’ll find them in the WCDA Business Directory.
 Create a holiday for it
Every December 6, I celebrate quitting a 20-year smoking habit by doing things that cost about the same as a carton of cigarettes. With the way prices keep on rising, soon I’ll be able to go to Australia!
Capture the moment
Take a photograph, write a journal entry or create a video or audio recording of your experience that you can refer to in the future. Start a success scrapbook or desktop folder so that you’re prepared for more great things coming your way.
Share it with loved ones
A girl’s night out or a romantic dinner for two—even at the local fish and chips shop—helps expand your celebration to include those close to you, especially if they’ve been rooting for you ever since the dishwasher started acting up.
Share it with others
Use your success as a catalyst to help others. Whether you choose to donate your time or energy, there are plenty of organizations out there who could benefit from your generosity.
Party like a four-year-old
Swing on the swings. Order a double-scoop of ice cream. Then take a nap. Pure bliss!
Gear up
Can’t afford to upgrade your entire office? No problem—just pick one piece of technology as a cool reward, such as a video iPod that lets you get your groove on and tune in to success strategies through podcasts and seminars. Win your own 30 GB video iPod by clicking here !
 Take a letter
Write yourself a letter of congratulations including all the juicy details of how you were finally able to defeat the temptation of pork rinds or land that new account. Stick it in a stamped envelope addressed to you and then give it to someone else. Ask them to mail it to you at a time of their own choosing—it’ll be a wonderful surprise.
Learn from this
Take a moment to step back and see how this happened. Did you try a new approach or did tenacity finally win out? Perhaps there’s something you can take from this experience and apply to other areas of your leisure and business activities. Hey, if it worked for a kitchen appliance, just wait until you see what happens to those receivables!
