Hi friends. Well, it's been a super busy last few weeks and I have had a very difficult time putting myself in my fourteen40. We were away for a weekend, then work and life got busy, had family in town the next weekend
Everything has been pointed and focused outward the last 2 weeks and I can feel it. My temper has been shorter and my sleep has been restless. (Anyone else notice how your sleep suffers when you are overworked and overtired?) Last night, after juggling work and the kids being out of school for Thanksgiving break, I felt the stress on my shoulders and the shortness of breath return. It's an all too familiar feeling, and one that I've been REALLY trying to work against. I was in the car, driving the kids home from a basketball game (which we had to leave early due to their behavior but that's another story), and I felt it. I knew right then that I needed to stop talking myself out of putting focus on my fourteen40 and stop waiting for life to slow down.
Life won't slow down. Life won't ever get to a point that is a "good time" to put myself first. I have to make that happen.
So, here I am, writing a short post to recommit and hopefully, with the busyness of the holidays upon us, encourage some of you to recommit as well. It's not easy, but I'm committed to making my family (and me) happier and healthier because I have an energetic and happy temperament thanks
Fourteen hundred and forty minutes are in each day. I need to make sure I find at least 5 to fill my soul and
Blessings!
