Be Selfish

What I know today is that I have worked with too many clients in the past who are living for everyone else, and have forgotten who is most important, and have lost who they are in the process!  Don't get caught up in the illusions of if I don't do this than who will?  Trust that there are many capable able bodies to step in and fill the gaps that are left after you step down, or away from a position.

If you aren't looking after you, then who is?  When we go through emergency procedures on an airplane, we are told to put our oxygen mask on first before assisting others.  I have said this before - you can't help anyone if you are passed out from lack of oxygen, right?

I want you to ask yourself if you are living in balance right now.  Our entire Universe is based on balance.  The seasons, night and day, our ecosystem etc.  When things are out of balance, for example,  too much rain, there is big trouble, and it can be disastrous!  The same goes for your activities in your life!

When I talk about Selfishness what it really means is "self-care."  You know what you need, and you must listen to those needs.  You are useless to anybody if you are sick or, even worse, dead!  I am being serious here.  If you are not taking care of your needs, you are draining yourself of your life force.  If your energy is depleted how can you possibly be serving or helping others?

Life is about balance.  You can not just breathe out, you must also breathe in!  So take a look into your life.  What is not balanced?  Are you giving too much love and not receiving it back?  Are you working too much and not experiencing enough play?  You know what is right for you, but are you listening?  It first starts in whispers.  

Please don't wait until there are screams - i.e.  your body telling you that you must listen, by stopping you with a serious illness, disease or a break-down.
