The interesting thing about an excercize like this is that it is a creative one, it's fun, and if you answer quickly, right off the top of your head, you might surprise yourself with some honest answers.

The next part of the exercise is realize, perhaps, how few of the small luxeries, like your favorite dessert, you haven't treated yourself to in a long time. Make a date with yourself for a treat at least once a week. It's amazing how good a little luxery feels.
