Note to self

It is very sad to realize that throughout our lives we have spent more time at our job than with our family and our health.

I have always said that to help someone you must first be well enough to be able to help them. How are you going to provide a service if you are not healthy, the big problem is that everything around us is based on money, you need money for many things.

Sometimes we keep ourselves busy by taking care of others and forget our own self. The more we try to please others, the less we are noticed.

Definite self -love is on my top list at these times, sis. When you don't see me popping up, I am taking a break and we all need it. MIsshu. I hope all is well. Xoxoxox

Self love and prioritizing ourselves first isn't selfish. Kasi we can't give love and make someone happy if we ourselves aren't even happy.

Relate na relate ako dito pero wala talaga akong ibang choices. Pero nagttry akong alaagaan ang sarili ko kahit man lang sa pag iwas sa puyat. Dahil wala anamn talagang ibang gagawa ng lahat kundi kaming mag asawa. Sapat na tulog, tinatry ko yan ngayon. Minsan lang ako magkasakit pero isa yan sa kinatakutan ko. Mas maganda kong habang maaga pa mag iingat na.

When I am burnout, I pause for a minute. I look for something that makes me happy. I alot a one day rest here in read.cash, for example. Yeah, there should be a work-life balance or else we will lose ourselves.

oo look after number one, in other words you Eylz. The whole work life balance is hard.

This is really what I am passing through now. I always think everyone in the family is my responsibility since I am the eldest child. I could do anything for the rest even out my life on hold for them. Sometimes I wonder whether if the table was turned, would they do the same for me ? Although, I only seek the grace of God as he continue to give me strength. I am totally indifferent to their praise or disappointment

Sapul na sapul saken to sis. I admit, I am neglecting myself na kahit magputol ng kuko ay challenge saken. I know I should be kinder to myself. Sigh. Thanks for this one.

Hmmm, as for me balance naman sakin I do thinhs because I want to and even if maapektuhan health ko it's all on me kasi nga I want to earn more and save more. Yes I am that selfish lol. But off course they are also part od the plan ehee. Let's take time then and let's do what we really want.

Me first. That's the simple rule. You need to care & look after yourself at first.

Sometimes taking care if other people consume us without us noticing it

Your post reminded me of one of my friends, who was thinking of working a full month without any day off to see how much he could earn. I thought he is a bit crazy about it. It just not worth it. It is illegal anyway and health is more important, than how much we can make.

I agree sis. We shouldn't wait that we felt regrets. I relate this, sometimes we didn't mind ourselves because of the others. We work hard for the others. We lend a time for the others. We did our best and efforts to the others but we didn't know we forget ourselves.

We must prioritize ourselves first because without it, everything will be vanish too. Everything will be affected. Our self is our main strength to all the parts in our life. We are the one who run it. Don't abuse it. Care yourself and it should be balance.

Absolutely sis, if we do not take care of ourselves first, we will end up not being able to care for others. Happy weekend!

I felt guilty ate after reading this. It was our health break last week but I still work at times. Really a note to self.

Nagpaaalipin kasi tayo sa pera sis eh ng di natin namamalayan. Then we tend to give more and more to others that we forget to look after ourselves. Sad reality of being a good person..

Ourselves should be cared off by us because we can't take regrets.

let's not wait for the time that we will say if only I listen to my body.
