"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"- as the saying goes. I guess that means you have to have fun sometimes, too! And there are lots of inexpensive ways to have fun.

My car will be paid off at the end of May and I was just thinking this morning how fantastic that will be! The other thing to keep in mind, is to be proud of what you have accomplished - even if it isn't quite your goal. For example, I have a goal to make an extra $900 a month. A little while ago I was feeling a bit frustrated because I came in short of my goal when a friend reminded me that I had made over $500 - in a pretty short time. When she said that I realized I needed to stop beating myself up, but instead be proud of my accomplishment, then work like the dickens to get it next time! And when I do hit it - a small inexpensive celebration of some kind may be in order! Maybe just a day off to relax. Good thoughts!
