You have to look out for Number 1. If you don't look out for yourself then how can you ever be expected to look out for your family and friends? You have to take care of yourself, NO "ands", "ifs", or "buts".
Of course, when I say "you have to take care of yourself" I don't mean you go off and neglect your duties. You are expected to continue doing what you are expected to do, sorry no slacking off here.
Taking care of yourself here means getting a pint of Ben and Jerry's and kicking your feet up or for the ladies going out and getting the full spa treatment.
Gents find yourself a barber and get the full treatment. A haircut, hot towel, and a shave. There are places that still do this. So go for it!
Taking care of yourself also means NOT to overdo it. One pint at a time. One spa treatment every three months. Doing it all the time will most certainly cause the novelty to wear off. Once the novelty wears off, the stress returns. Stress returns when you are no longer able to properly pamper yourself.
Then what will you do? Stress over finding something new to do to pamper yourself? So go easy on it the pampering.
Thank you,
Dave
