Good morning friends. This is a little kind of tips coming from Phillip C. McGraw, PhD. It is most applicable to those people who work hard or let us just say a workaholic person. It’s good that we love our work but there will always be a time for everything. As we have to work, we should have to take a break. I’d like to share it with you.
It’s not selfish. It’s not irresponsible. It’ll send you back to your friends and family calmer, happier, and nicer. Grab a little private time for yourself.
Whenever he talk to a women about making alone time a priority, it’s clear to him that even the thought of it makes them feel guilty. Women have been socialized to be the nurturers, the loving mothers, wives, and domestic engineers. Between working, running a household, and raising over scheduled kids, there’s no time left for “self”. Unfortunately, women got the message that they were being negligent if they abandoned their posts and invested in themselves. This couldn’t be more wrong.
The idea that it’s selfish to take care of yourself is shortsighted and prevents you from being your best. If you’re rolling your eyes because you believe private time is a luxury you can’t afford, think of it this way: you can’t give away what you don’t have. Without a peaceful, well-rested, loving, tender spirit, you’re in no position to be nurturing to your family or friends. We’re like bank accounts: If we make only withdrawals (Carpooling, working late, helping out a friend), we wind up emotionally and physically bankrupt. We all must make regular deposits to our minds, souls and bodies. You must take a time for you.
