Living with Myself
Why am I constantly talking about and seeking ways to help myself and be a better person? Because I live with me all day, every day. When I’m not taking care of myself, it feels like I’m carrying a sick toddler—someone who is screaming, crying, and miserably in pain. It weighs on my day, making everything feel heavier and more challenging.
When I do take care of myself, even with simple acts like taking a shower, going for a walk, or taking a quiet moment, life becomes easier. Actively noticing and caring for myself lightens the load and makes my daily routine more manageable.
Who will always be there for you? You. In any circumstance. You will be with you. Guaranteed. Nothing else is guaranteed. So, let’s take care. Start as small as needed. Take a shower, go outside, read a page of a book, look at the ocean, have a moment. Every small act of self-care you give yourself makes managing life a bit easier.
ACTION: Start with one small act of self-care today. Whether it’s a shower, a short walk, or a quiet moment of reflection, take a step towards making your life a bit easier and more enjoyable.
