- How do you want to feel when it is done?
It’s one thing to know what you want it to look like at the end, quite another to know how you want it to feel. Are you looking for the place to be warm, inviting, cool, invigorating? Again, take some time and write these things down. Work out which things are the most important to you.
Equally important is to write down how YOU want to feel at the end of the process. Proud, happy, excited, brimming with pride? How are you going to reward yourself when the project is completed? A glass of champagne, a party, weekend away, dinner out, open a bottle of special wine, a round of golf? Write this down and make sure you follow through with your reward once you have finished. You have earned it! Remember to thank your tradesmen as well at the end – payment is one thing, a big thank you goes a long way!
