Make time for yourself from "summary" of Girl, Stop Apologizing by Rachel Hollis
We live in a society that glorifies being busy. We wear our packed schedules as a badge of honor, as if the number of things on our to-do list is directly proportional to our worth. But here's the truth: constantly pushing ourselves to the brink of exhaustion is not a badge of honor. It's a recipe for burnout. In order to truly thrive in life, we must prioritize ourselves. We must make time for self-care, for relaxation, for doing things that bring us joy. It's not selfish to prioritize yourself; it's necessary. You can't pour from an empty cup, so filling your cup should be your top priority. Making time for yourself doesn't mean neglecting your responsibilities or ignoring the needs of others. It simply means carving out space in your day for activities that replenish your spirit and rejuvenate your soul. Whether it's reading a book, going for a walk, taking a bubble bath, or simply sitting in silence, find what brings you peace and make time for it. When you prioritize yourself, you show the world that you value your well-being. You set boundaries that protect your time and energy. You become better equipped to handle life's challenges because you are coming from a place of strength and self-assuredness. So, stop apologizing for taking time for yourself. Embrace the fact that self-care is not a luxury, but a necessity. By making yourself a priority, you are setting yourself up for success in all areas of your life. Remember, you are worthy of love, care, and attention. So make time for yourself, unapologetically. Your well-being depends on it.
