Do you find that the more caught up in life you, the less
you have the chance to work on yourself? Maybe you haven’t thought about it
much. Perhaps you are someone who plans out the logistics of your day and as
the day goes on check things off the list. You go to meetings or work, you
respond to emails, go to the gym, and catch up with an old friend. If you think
of it these things are work (or to you a task). You are expending energy
planning, coordinating, and doing. Now it’s time to ask yourself; What are you
doing to recharge yourself or fill up that energy tank?
Working on yourself is the most important thing you can do
to better your life. What would you do if you had zero responsibility for a
day. I like to think of this as “free time”. The free time we had in preschool
where we got to do whatever we wanted for 30 minutes. You could play house,
read, color, listen to music, take a nap, etc. It’s super important for you to plan
out “free time” in your busy schedule. This time can be 20 minutes to 6 hours.
It’s totally your call, but just be in tune with yourself to know how much you
need to allot for yourself. You can go on a walk and listen to music, sit in a
bath drinking wine, watch a movie, go get a mani/pedi, or whatever else you
feel like doing. Be sure during this free time you aren’t working on anything.
No instagram posts, no emailing, no taking calls, no texting friends; this is
YOUR time. Once you take this time for yourself recharge, you will be full of energy to do the things you love doing all week/weekend long.
I encourage you to plan out some interruption-free free time
in to your weekly plans. Tell me what you plan on doing, and how you felt
afterwards. It’s truly a great way to reset and recharge.
Cheers to the weekend.
