Thinking About ME

How many times have you been told it's selfish to think about yourself before others? If you are like me, I'm sure it's in the hundreds if not thousands. I was raised on the thought of helping others and leaving yourself till last. But I'm learning a new way of thinking. I have learned when I think of myself more often and do what is best for me, in turn helps me to be in a better position to help others.

How many times have you rushed around doing errands and not feed the body that is serving you. We all do it. We leave the house with no food in our stomachs, skip lunch to pick up dry cleaning. Then before we know it, it's three o'clock in the afternoon and we have a headache, frazzled nerves with a screaming fit coming on by the time we pick the kids up at school.

How much better for you, had it have been a short breakfast and a sit down lunch, even if it was a simple fast food feast from the dollar menu? Your children or date would have a smiling human picking them up, instead of someone who's about to ruin their day.

Take the few extra minutes to care about yourself. It will give you the energy to help others with a smile and in the long run get you where you want to be in your life.
