LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, who are both miserable on their respective teams, could still be in Cleveland coasting to the NBA Finals every single year...instead the dynasty was ruined over some hurt feelings and bad management. A once in a lifetime pairing...what a shame.
*walks into a psychic reading place*
me: hey do you take walk-ins?
psychic: no sorry
me: dang.. alright.. *begins to leave*
psychic: but we knew you’d be coming in and asking that, so we made a reservation for you
me: you guys :’)
we can chose to feel defeated because we aren't able to follow through with plans / ideas / events / moves we previously planned for that day OR see it as an opportunity to listen to your mind & body and feel good you chose yourself over the idea of what you should be doing
it's incredible to watch yourself grow from never saying no, or forcing things that don't serve you to confidently learning when to admit something is too much and do what's best for you that moment
self care IS realizing that some days you just don't have it in you and that's OK - it doesn't matter if someone can't understand you need time / rest - you're serving YOU not them.
totally normal system we have where you work all day, come home & have maybe 3 hours to decompress until it’s time to go to bed, get up early & go back the next day. every moment you’re awake should be spent getting ready to go to work, or unwinding after being there. wonderful.
Me : can't sleep because im afraid the huge tree in our backyard is going to fall on our house and kill us w these high winds...................
My boyfriend : 😴😴😴😴😴😴
