What do you mean by "sole ownership"? If you mean that you are the sole owner of a company, then of course it's normal to pay dividends. However, if you mean sole proprietorship, dividends don't make sense.
That's because dividends are paid to shareholders who hold shares of a corporation, typically following a resolution by the board of directors. A sole proprietorship is not a corporation nor does it have shares or a board of directors.
It's like getting in your car, driving to the supermarket, and claiming you got there by taking a jet. No, you didn't. But it's also not that big of a deal.︀ Most people will just disregard you as being a little weird.
