You guys! I had a realization about myself and it was not a good feeling. I realized I was punishing myself for my success! What?! Listen I knew it seemed crazy, but when I said it out loud to my friend this morning during her yoga class I was even more aware of how insane that sounded, yet it was true! This time last year I would have skipped out on my favorite yoga class at my favorite studio with my favorite people all because I have a busy work day ahead of me. It seemed like the busier I was in my business the less I allow myself to take time for myself. This is not good! I preach the importance of self care to my followers and my customers, but clearly I wasn’t practicing what I preached when it came to my own well being. If I carried that mindset into this decade I wouldn’t have gone to class this morning and I would have missed out on all of the good energy these two beauties bring into my life. This also aligns with what I was talking about yesterday about breaking promises to ourselves. So I’m leaving that nasty habit of punishing myself in the last decades. And while I’m currently just letting life flow around me and not forcing things that aren’t meant for me I am going to continue to be aware of the things I do that are holding me back. It’s so true when people say you create the life you want. So now I’ll head into the studio to start working and maybe I will get done a little later today, but that is totally worth starting my day off in the right mindset and a little self love and care.
