“I don’t have time to do it.” “I’ll get to it later.” “My career
(or education) comes first.” “I’m too busy.” ‘I’ll be (or I am) fine.” These
are some of the excuses people give for not taking care of themselves, and/or not
prioritizing their own health over other areas in their lives. I get it – there’s
sooooo much we need to get done in any given day, and we feel like doing
anything outside of those tasks will put us behind schedule, derail our
progress, or set us too far behind. The main reason being is that we don’t see,
or understand, the importance of making ourselves not just a priority, but THE
priority.
