Once you've made it...throw a Success Shindig!
Of course you should celebrate your wins, but why do it in the time-honored (and boooooring) ways? Throw yourself a theme party, invite all your friends, coworkers, family - whomever you think should share in the fun - and let the good times roll. Ideas include:
Throw a rock-climbing party at the local indoor climbing wall to celebrate your successful "climb to the top"!
Host a "coming out" masquerade party. Invitees wear their brightest and most beautiful outfits, but hide them under dull and drab wraps until the appointed hour, at which point everyone "comes out" to join you in your brighter, more beautiful life like a room full of butterflies metamorphosing.
Hold a gala awards dinner for yourself. Finagle your funniest friend or family member into MC'ing by regaling the group with your accomplishments, and then "awarding" you with your prize (see Reach Your Goals - Give Yourself A Gold Star" for tips on motivational awards). Have lots of good food, music, drinks and whatever makes it a party for you. Wear a sash or nametag that announces your accomplishment so that everyone knows what you've achieved.
Successful ladies - go on a "Queen of the Universe" adventure. Purchase an inexpensive costume tiara, gather up all your friends and have a girls' day out, complete with spa treatments, a movie, dinner - the works! Guys can adapt this by donning a custom printed hat or T-shirt and inviting the boys out for whatever spells fun for your group.
