Working on your business by yourself can be a pretty lonely experience unless you take measures to counteract its solo nature. Because you have no manager per se, I think it's important to reward yourself for meeting certain goals or markers in your plan and in doing so build a positive association with the process rather than with events.
This morning I reached one of these markers (completing a large piece of work that has taken several months) and tried to think of a way to reward myself for doing so. Trying to be frugal I wanted to do something nice that didn't cost any money. It's then that I realized that pretty much everything I see as a treat has to be bought. Going out for a nice meal, buying something you've been wanting for a while, getting a takeaway, going to the cinema or theatre, etc, etc. There were only a few things I considered a treat that didn't have money at their root (have a lie in tomorrow morning or take the day or afternoon off work...)
I'm interested to hear what others do to reward themselves and if the majority of nice things we do have a financial cost.
