311. How to Reward Yourself For Your Har...

Jacqueline Snyder
About this episode

The end of the year is a time for reflection and relaxation. For product bosses, though, it's the busiest time of the year. We go, and go, and go, and go – often for the sake and benefit of others, our business, our customers, and our futures. But, what about right now? We can’t forget to take account of the good work being done and consistently reward ourselves for putting forth the effort to make it all happen.

In this episode, we talk about the best ways to reward yourself and when, and share some examples of ways we’ve done so in the past to help put things in perspective. Hint: Rewarding yourself with a trip to the Galapagos in ten years doesn't cut it! We’re talking small-scale moments of bliss, decisions that hinge on the difference between three shavings of truffle mushroom and five. (We explain that part in a classic Product Boss dinner story.)
