Signs of maturity.
Learn ways to take care of YOU…like speaking kindly to and about yourself. Mental tapes are powerful. Practice kind internal words like; “I see how hard you’re trying. Keep up the good work. Tomorrow’s another day.”
Give yourself permission to rest. A twenty minute nap will rejuvenate your body and your attitude. Read a book that builds your courage and renews your hope.Take a class that expands your focus and horizon. Bible Study. Exercise. Poetry. Drawing. Painting. Writing. Make a leap. Do it today. Sign up.
You are important.
thanks for the reminder of taking care of myself. I needed the encouragement!
I always remind myself that if I am not taken care of, I cannot function in my job. (EMS-taking care of others)
I have learned that it is not selfish to love yourself. It is also said you can’t love another more than you love yourself. Therefore, the more I love myself, the more I can love others! That makes me a walking billboard telling how much I can love you! Aaaaaah! Finally it’s okay (justified) to do whatever it takes to bring out the best in me cause that’s what Jesus wanted all along. Besides, when you are learning something new, it’s always best to practice at home first. 🙂
