Here’s my thoughts on this and how I plan on living 2017. Be selfish. Love yourself and make yourself number one.
Yes we all have commitments, we have jobs and families and friends and we spend our days giving and giving but do we give ourselves the same in return that we give everyone else.
Most of us do not. We go through the motions we run ourselves crazy and we don’t take time for ourselves. So think about it…right now are you in a place right now that makes you completely happy or are you just rolling through life? What can you do right now to put yourself first! You don’t have to make a hundred changes but try and make a few small changes every day to get you to a place that makes you happy.
For example start each day with reading a book! My first book of 2017 is Desire Map. Which so far is amazing and has told me to stop dreaming start doing which is definately something I need to put into practice. Maybe a work out to start your day can help you find an inner happiness and self love. Maybe it’s saying no to all your commitments for a day and staying in bed giving yourself that time to regroup.
We are the most important person in our lives. Without you life doesn’t happen. A friend reminded me of this today. It is very important to love ourselves be selfish even when society tells us that we shouldn’t. Society tells us to go to school get a job start a family and constantly give. Never when growing up do we hear how important it is to take care of ourselves until something happens and we are required to make changes like getting sick!
Who’s with me on being selfish and taking time for ourselves. Make the small changes necessary and find your happiness! Channel your inner Meredith Grey!
