Living through the pandemic definitely made me evaluate the depth of my relationships, not just with people but with things, institutions and most of all my relationship with time. Before the pandemic, I viewed time as something that would always be on my side when I needed it to. Losing some “normalcy” and dear loved ones last year made me reflect. Before COVID My mindset was: There will always be time to do tomorrow what I neglected to do today, to reach out to folks, to rectify situations, to meet goals, etc.
As we navigate through a life with limited time my intention is not to put off for tomorrow what I have the capacity to do today. How are you taking care of your time this year? Do you set intentions for how you spend your time?
Like many people, I spend a lot of time at work. For the past
few months, I’ve had at least one day in my work week that is extremely challenging
physical and mentally. Those type of days leave me feeling tired down to my
soul because those are the days I pour out all my energy but don’t always
refill my cup. As tough as those days are, I’ve learned to not be defined by
them but refined through them. A challenging day does not equate to a bad week.
It means I simply have to do a better job of taking care of myself and prioritizing
my wellbeing. So I decided to take off work today as self-care day to replenish
me. How do you pour into yourself when you feel like you spent all your energy?
