Because work takes more from you than it fulfills you. Life throws stressful surprises our way. Self care can recharge our battery a little bit, but work and life tend act up again, and we can't seem to recharge fast enough.
There is a limit to how much self care you can apply.
- Binging more Netflix suddenly
- Exercise habits changing suddenly
- Drinking more alcohol / using more substances suddenly
- Seeing friends less suddenly
- Vacations not relaxing anymore
#SelfConf
1. Try to change only what is internal and stay in the room.
2. Try to change something external and try to extinguish the flame.
3. Leave the room, because we can't change something external.
#SelfConf
There is a difference between surviving and thriving.
You can try to change internally. Don't try to change your feelings; but think about how your feelings impact you.
What change is possible?
Who can authorize this change (ie. being moved off a project)?
Who can help petition for the change?
