If your job requires a college degree, you should be able to write-off your student loan payments as a business expense the way CEOs write off their private jets and yachts for their jobs which require neither.
No matter how strong or strong-willed you are, you cannot live a stressful, maxed-out life without that pace eventually taking a toll and reducing your clarity.
It is necessary to take breaks, set parameters, and be kind to yourself if you want to continue making an impact in your little corner of the world.
Always remember that bad days still happen in good lives, that is just the way it is. Take a breath, lean on a friend, walk away from the struggle and clear your mind - tomorrow is a brand new day - in a good life.
Nobody is born a warrior. You choose to be one if you refuse to stay seated, refuse to back down, and if you stand up after being knocked down. Warriors fight for something bigger than themselves. We chose to be warriors for service dog handlers in science - moving forward one paw print at a time.
Saturday snoozles! It is easy to forget about taking care of ourselves. Sometimes, we need a little nudge to remind us that self-care isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity.
Rest and self-care are so important. When you take time to replenish your spirit, it allows you to serve others from the overflow. You cannot serve from an empty cup.
@raiderette68@sampson_dog I’ve had both great and not so great experiences with gluten intolerance. I’ve literally had restaurants ask if I wanted them to make me a lettuce bun when I order something without a bun and it makes me feel seen!
@sampson_dog I thankfully don’t have celiac but I am way off the charts for a severe intolerance. I was at a conference the end of May and had to DoorDash food I could eat because their lunch was sandwiches 🤦🏻♀️ I just feel like it isn’t taken seriously!
