Now taking some time
for me has been a challenge as I am one of those people that always
makes sure that I am keeping everyone else happy. What I was
forgetting is that the only way to make others happy was to ensure
that I am happy first.
I am not saying that
you only think of yourself but what I am saying is you do need to
make sure that you set aside some time to do the things you like
doing or things for you. What I mean by this is the time to maybe
have a manicure or have a haircut. No these aren't big expensive
things but they are time for yourself and they can help in making you
feel better about things.
Setting aside a bit of
time for yourself can make a huge difference in how you deal with
others around you. If you continually try and make everyone else
happy and don't take time for yourself you will probably have
problems just focusing on all the tasks that you have on your plate.
The other thing that could happy is you would find yourself
frustrated a lot easier than normal. Yes, so that half hour or an
hour to yourself sometimes can really help you think clearer.
The other good point
about taking that time for yourself is you will feel better in
yourself as well. I know that just having a manicure can make such a
difference in my mood. I don't get one very often but when I do I
know I feel better about things after I have taken that time for me.
Of course, you aren't going to be able to take that time right in the
middle of some major work but sometimes at least knowing that you are
going to do something for yourself makes that job a little easier.
So yes make sure you
take some time for yourself because the people around you will also
benefit from it. You will feel better about yourself and it will
make the tasks ahead a little easier to deal with.
