10 Steps to Self-Care



If it feels wrong, don’t do it.
Say “exactly” what you mean.
Don’t be a people pleaser.
Trust your instincts.
Never give up on your dreams.
Don’t be afraid to say “No”.
Don’t be afraid to say “Yes”.
Be kind to yourself.
Let go of what you can’t control.
Stay away from drama and negativity as much as possible.

Note to self:

Why the hell do you find it so difficult to follow such simple rules? 
I try to say what I mean, and mean what I say without saying it mean, does that count?  
My instincts have always led me down the wrong path, so no thank you. 
Dreams?  What dreams?  I was supposed to have dreams?  Damn...
If I say "No", they won't like me.  
If I say "Yes", then I'm falling back into people pleasing, ugh, it's a no win situation. 
I don't know how to be kind to myself, isn't it obvious.  
I try to let go of my past, but it creeps up on me daily, and I know I can no longer control any of it. 
I am surrounded by drama and negativity on a daily basis, I can't escape it. 

NOW WHAT?
