im going to say what i know is true but i also know is hard to practice - you have to put you first. if this journey is what you want than altimately nothing else should be able to gain priority over it - and im not so niave to think this is easy. i have found in the last few weeks my life has been extrememly busy and im struggling to find the time to do the things i want to. i have had to make some tuff decisions in regards to taking time for me when i really feel liek i should be doign something else (particularly spednign more time with my kids/work/other commitments) but i need to exercise and eat right in order to be a better person. so im saying no to things adn learning to be strong for me. man this is not an easy thing but dpr it is worth it and you are worth it. so please put yourself first.
