5 Tips For Successful Solo Living
2. Live in the present, not the past. Make sure your surroundings reflect who you are now and who you want to be in the future. If you've recently split up with a partner your home may reflect what you created together. What do you want your home to say about you now? Take the opportunity for a spring clean and create a home that uplifts and supports you.
3. Be the hostess with the mostest. Don't assume that your friends with partners or families are going to be too busy to hang out with you. They may well relish the comparative calmness that solo living brings. Invite friends round or make regular dates to have fun.
4. Treat yourself - you're worth it. You don't need a partner to give yourself gifts, time or attention - you can do all of this yourself. Bringing a little luxury into your life will support your confidence and self -esteem.
5. Enjoy your single status and the opportunities it brings. Now's the time to do all the things you meant to do but were too busy to because you were in a relationship. Take time to plan how you'd like your life to be in 5, 10, even 20 years time. What have you always wanted to do but held back on because your partner wasn't interested or wouldn't approve? The rest of your life starts now so make it happen.
