IMPORTANCE OF PRIORITIZING SELF!
Living in a society and getting caught with the regular run of life we always tend to push our own priorities right at the end of the line without even giving a blink of an eye. We don’t even realize the importance of working on self. Social conditioning also plays a vital role here and one can get caught in a grid of trying to appease others.
We are ever ready with excuses and a list of reasons for not actually having time for self. Though the entire concept of I, Me, and Myself can be termed as egotistical at times even this needs to be addressed and looked into and also worked on.
It’s natural for having wounds, pains, and suffering within one’s life and trying to move on at times without even knowing what to do or how to deal with the suppressed emotions. We feel the easiest thing to do is to ignore and keep going on in life without making a fuss on self.
But for how long??
Eventually, it will blow up, or explode onto us are we ever ready to face facts and prioritize ourselves for own good.
Hmmmm maybe/ not really
🔹I don’t have time now
🔹Now is not the time
🔹I am unsure
🔹I don’t have maids
🔹It’s too expensive to spend on myself
🔹I am busy with cooking and taking care of family
🔹Let me think about it
🔹I am not ready to spend money
🔹My work life is hectic
🔹I try to prioritize myself but I can’t
🔹I fear taking the commitment
Now do I want to keep rattling about the list of excuses one can dish out?
No not really ….!!!
As this is not a blame game.
We have to always take time out for oneself and do what’s right. Only when we are empowered and grounded will we be able to take time out for being there for your family. When we don’t have time for ourself and we don’t respect your own needs. No one else will even give it a second thought.
This is something one needs to know and understand, only you will know what you really want in life and work on that accordingly. By being inconsistent and getting frustrated that no one understands you will really not help you in any way.
As the old proved says
“You can take the horse to the water even if a hundred men come they can’t make it drink water.”
Only if we want to work and prioritize ourselves can we be able to work and help ourselves through whatever we are going through? At times we fear to even express or give our opinions as we are unsure if it will be accepted or not.
The funny part is at times when we don’t want to do something we tend to pass the buck onto the family and wash our hands of awkward moments. This makes me laugh as we are not only lying to the other person to escape but also our clearly showing that you don’t prioritize yourself.
Some tips for prioritizing oneself
- Take time out for yourself for Introspecting and understanding what you exactly want in life.
- Allow yourself time to work on self daily even if it is only 30mins a day.
- Keep a space which is your space where you can unwind and be your true self without being worried.
- Seek one trusted person who is a good listener and support you when needed.
- It’s always good to have a healer/ counselor on your list and go to them often to release your baggage.
- Seek help to identify your weak spots and work on them to help you address these issues.
- At times it’s okay if you don’t do anything or feel lazy or just want to be. It’s good to let yourself be.
- Treat yourself to your favorite dish or gift yourself something that would make you happy.
- Allow yourself to express without any inhibitions or fear. Be open and assertive.
Taking out time for self and working on certain deep-rooted issues is very important.
On the path of self nurturing one needs to prioritize oneself.
