Do you believe that you were meant for more?
Do you believe you were meant for more rest, additional time to relax, meeting a friend for lunch, taking a walk, or exercising? Do you make time to plan what you are going to eat today and for the rest of the week?
I know. Who am I kidding, Mitzi Beach, questioning YOUR life status or situation?
Well my friends, let me share a secret with you. In my seventies, the absolute only way I can look, feel, and be as I am today is totally due to the fact that I did take care of ME for decades and decades.
Did I ever have tons of money to spend on myself?
Did I ever have tons of money to take time away from work and spend plenty of time raising a family?
The answer is an emphatic NO to both questions!!
Everyone’s Trap – When
Do you hear yourself saying, when I have time, when my kids are older, when this project is finished, when I have more money?
The secret for taking care of YOU is to schedule it. To make you (your number one) priority, will only happen if you seriously look at your weeks and make time for you by writing your ME time on your calendar.
I do encourage you to read in my book “Design Smarts” the section on routines which is undoubtedly worth price of the book. This section will convince you why you must begin taking care of your beautiful self.
If I ever do a 2nd edition of this book Ii will rename it “Life Smarts!”
Your Billboard In 5 Years
What you do right now will be your visual billboard in 5 years.
How you look and feel right now is a reflection of what you have been doing for the last 5 years.
Ouch! I know!
We Cannot Give Away What We Do Not Have
Make yourself a priority and schedule your me time. If we truly want to love others and be all that we can be for our friends, family, business, and inner circle, ask yourself, are they getting your leftovers? The meaning may be that you’re tired, worn out, or a compromised beautiful self?
Yes, life is always happening. However, if we give ourselves margins with our schedules allowing for breathing room between obligations, we will have the reward of enjoying our life and those who we are blessed to have in our lives.
Why This Matters
Now at my age, sadly, I witness or observe many of my peers unable to actively participate in their later years due to exactly what I am encouraging you all to start right now…take care of you.
Again, at my age, it is staggering to me how fast the years or decades fly by now. The question you must answer is who is taking care of the beautiful you?
Why is this your most critical question to yourself? Because it is what matters. Remember, you were meant for more.
More is absolutely possible if you live the Lifesizing® lifestyle – to live by choice not by chance.
The “Design Smarts” book is a lifelong reference book to guide and motivate you to live the ageless–aging life you most certainly deserve.
