Adulting Sucks: Lets Reward Ourselves for Making it Through Another Day

This post is a little more lighthearted than I normally get in this blog, but the topic was too hard to pass up.  A good friend sent me adult reward stickers and the ideas just started to roll into my head.

See... We reward our children when they complete chores, do their homework, get along with their siblings or listen to us.  Why don't we deserve the same?  

Being an adult is hard work and every one of us deserves a pat on the back at the end of the day for just making it through.  Why not a reward chart to help us put into perspective all the amazing accomplishments we have each day.  

So you might be wondering what in the world would these stickers say... Here are a few we came up with, but the list is endless..

What do we collect the reward stickers for?  Might be to build up to a prize, a daily treat or something special over time. Whatever the reason, it is a visual reminder of how much you kick ass each and every day.  

So all kidding aside being an adult is rough at times.  You might think people around you have it more together or are a better adult than you.  Truth is we are all figuring our way through this crazy thing called life.  Don't beat yourself up and instead realize all the temptations you resisted, the negative thoughts you overcame and the great accomplishments you had, even the small ones.  Give yourself a pat on the back because..... YOU ROCK!!!
