Be Selfish

Be selfish with your time.  We only have a finite amount of time in every day to accomplish all that needs to be done, and often we neglect the most important person in our lives when we become too busy. 

That person is YOU. 

Especially, you moms out there.  Always running around trying to work, take care of the family, make dinner, do homework, volunteer, and then try to find time for yourself. 

We all know that when Mom breaks everyone breaks.  So, it's imperative that your find time for yourself.  To care and nourish your well being.  To try and eat right, exercise, and get the rest you need.  I know that sounds idealistic but what is the alternative. 

Anxiety, depression, unhappiness, sickness.  When you don't take care of yourself it leads to many other problems.  And if you don't care for yourself you won't be in any condition to care for others. 

I know it's goes against the Mom code but you need to be a little selfish with your time particularly when it comes for setting aside time that has do with your health.  You need to make time for eating right, exercising, sleeping, and relaxing. 

A night out or trip with the girls is important to recharge your batteries.  Your fitness is important especially as we age.  Carrying an extra 10, 20, or more pounds is like carrying your 3 year old on your back all day every day.  Those extra pounds sap your energy take a toll on your joints, bones, heart, and can lead to other complications.  

Restoring your health and fitness will help you feel years younger and also just as importantly reduce the stress, tension, and anxiety in your life. 

 Exercise is a wonder drug better than any pill. 

So be a little selfish when it comes to taking care of yourself, we all need you Moms to go right on being Super.
