things I’ve said in therapy #11

slow. down. your constant rushing and need to get everything done as quickly as possible is impacting your health. i know you want to achieve your dream life, and i know the dedication is there. but there is absolutely no reason to approach everything with an overwhelming sense of urgency. you will get to the things you need to get to. 

prioritize your health. mental, physical, and spiritual. when your health is in check, you’re able to recharge and put your newfound energy into creating the things you want to create. the outcome somehow ends up being so much better, anyway.

little things count. though grand gestures have a place of their own, there is something to be said about the smaller, more subtle acts. donating the change in your wallet in the nearest tip jar. taking your 10 item to-do list and only checking off the 3 most important items by the end of the day, leaving the rest for the next day. reading a short passage before bed - 15 minutes of a fictional book, or non-fiction, an interesting article, or the bible.
