Re: Self-care - Why can it be so hard?
Like the self care list @Shaz51
Self care is a challenge. Over committing is a big drain on self care. Student success advisor I link in with at the university does a lot of work with me on scheduling and task lists to help combat this. I have learned that it is the sum of little things rather than big things that drain resources the most. Writing including everything down down to something as simple as breakfast helps to say no.
Common theme I keep getting reminded is that if the boat is sinking put your own life vest on first then help everyone else with theirs.

"if the boat is sinking put your own life vest on first then help everyone else with theirs. --- so important"
Excellent Point @Determined @Determined It's a long while since I've heard that Saying...
Good Reminder.
Cannot Save anyone, if you're going to Sink yourself - So put that Lifejacket on 1st.
I'm a Non-Swimmer, by the way - So I really do need mine on 1st.
Some others can Swim very well, not me...
