Taking Care of You Takes Time

by | Jan 7, 2023 | Blog

Time. It’s something we all wish we had more of.  I wish there was more time in the day to get things done. Time seems to fly by between work, school, activities and hobbies, and other duties we have.

I have been trying to think about my New Year’s Resolution for 2023. Nothing seems to stand out to me, and I started to think I shouldn’t have a New Year’s Resolution this year because it sounds exhausting.

And then it hit me, why does a resolution sound exhausting? Why am I so exhausted? What can I do to help myself?

At first, having a New Year’s Resolution to help myself and not others sounded selfish. But, taking care of ourselves is not a selfish act and it’s vital.

I had a wonderful 2022. It was quite a busy year with lots of accomplishments! Unfortunately, looking back, I neglected to take care of myself like I could have. How can I take care of myself when there is not enough time to take care of everything else? But now, I must take care of myself to take care of everything else.

Taking care of ourselves may take time away from something else, but when we replenish our health, we’ll have the energy to give back to others once we take care of ourselves first. This year, I am going to try to get more rest. I am going to try to stick with my goal and go to bed early so I can take on whatever comes my way every day.

What are you going to do in 2023 to take care of yourself?
