Self-care, during times of high-stress, is essential. It sounds simple and obvious, but, when we’re in survival mode, many of us don’t take good enough care of ourselves.
Eat/Hydrate Well
Sleep Well
Move Well
Think Well
Laugh
This week, commit to mastering 3 of these. 🤝

Amen. If social media gives you anxiety and fear, step away for a bit. If news gives you anxiety and fear, stop watching the news. It’s okay. You can be informed without being consumed.
Consume things that bring you peace, that give you hope.
Better inputs ➡️ Better outputs

The harder we work to prove our status, the more insecure we appear.
Respect is rarely claimed through acts of self-importance. It's regularly earned through making others feel important.
The people we admire are those who go out of their way to help us feel seen and heard.

Perfect isn’t a burden you need to carry. It only leads to disappointing, frustration and bitterness.
Just get better. It doesn’t matter if they are small wins, baby steps, or just the act of showing up when you didn’t feel like it.
Progress > Perfection

"Pain's been my greatest teacher. I'm grateful that I hit bottom. There's plenty of people that can perpetuate unhealthy habits for the course of their life and it never gets bad enough to really confront themselves at that level of profundity."

If they're conditional, they're not your values.
If they're conditional, they're not your habits.
If they're conditional, they're not your beliefs.
If it's conditional, it's not your standard.
Be who you say you are, always.
