“You know that life cannot withhold itself from you. All that is and has is fully given to you to enjoy.”- Ernest Holmes

Why are you hiding your talents. Don’t hide your talents. The world needs your talents. The world needs your talents. Isolation is not the answer to your problems. Instead of isolating yourself, instead of withholding yourself from others, why not connect with them.

Life has given you everything to enjoy. Why are you not enjoying it? It is yours to enjoy. Don’t isolate yourself from your growth. Because your growth is not coming to you. You have got to go meet your growth and take it home with you.

If you want to succeed, you must embrace life. You must make time to create your life. But you can’t create your life alone. You need people to help you. Remember, you create your life by your own choice.

And if you don’t make the choice to live your life, you are asking other people to make your decisions for you. Do you want other people to control your life, or do you want to control your own life? The choice is yours.

Embracing Self-Care

“Self-care isn’t selfish.” It is okay to make time for yourself. Don’t feel guilty about it. You have been doing it for other people. Why can’t you make time just to be yourself? Why can’t make time just to connect with yourself? Why can’t you make time to build a strong relationship with yourself? You need it. Your body needs it. Your heart and soul need it. Again, “Self-care isn’t selfish.”

Self-care, according to Joanna Platt, “Is anything you do that helps you build, maintain, and strengthen your relationships with yourself.” She is right. So, what are you doing to maintain your energy? What are you doing to build a solid relationship with yourself? You can anything that works for you. You don’t have to break your bank account to care for yourself. Just pick something that works for you. You can read, take a walk, sing, yoga, meditate, or write. Again, do what works for you. But make sure you are doing something to keep yourself whole. If you do, you can help other people.

I am making peace with myself.
