“Okay. Focus. Stop getting distracted.
Small, meaningless things are taking me off the path, taking my attention. Learn to say no.
Find out how to put myself first.
I’ve never put myself first. This is going to be hard.
Going into the unknown. Is it so bad to put anyone else, everyone else before me?
It’s all I know, it’s all I’ve ever known. When was the last time I treated myself with tenderness, with kindness? I’m not sure there was ever a time.
I always put everyone else first, myself last. Why is that? Am I not deserving of a little kindness too?
I don’t know how or where to begin.
Set a goal. Focus, stay on that path. Don’t let anyone distract you from it. Block out the noise, the need to put yourself at the back of the queue. You are worth kindness.”
