#respectyourlimits

I’ve been called “stoic” by more than one person. I’ve also been told I have a strong “can-do” attitude. Sometimes people meant that I was pushing myself well past what I should’ve been. Others have meant that it is one of my most compelling and endearing traits. ✨ Even I have gone back and forth about whether my tendency to keep going is a good thing. Not to say that I don’t know when to quit—I do. I just hate it. And I’ve come to learn that rarely do I ever have to really quit. Sometimes a pause, a break, a shift, or asking for help is what I need to find my way through. ✨ Do you feel like you know where your limits are? ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ #respectyourlimits #knowyourboundaries #knowyourlimits #respectyourboundaries #stoic #limits #candoattitude #mindsetquotes #mindsets #mindsetshift #growthmindset #fridayquotes #cindytgrahamphd #brighterhopewc #brighterpodcast #brighterliving #LiveBrighter (at Howard County, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtFXZv7nGnQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lexwlyl667u0

My words of wisdom are few and far between at the moment. But today I had a realisation. Actually no, not a realisation. More that an already existing intellectual comprehension has moved to a deeper level of knowledge within me, and is currently resting as an embodied truth: hold yourself gently. At any one time, there is only so much you can do. There is only so much you can take. Only so far that your body can go. Softly softly does it. #listen #softlysoftly #takeiteasy #respectyourlimits #takecareofyourself #selfcare
