Why is putting ourselves first so hard to do? We all know that when it gets tough the first thing we should do is take care of ourselves so that we can then be more available to help others. No matter how much we hear this though I bet most of you think that you will have some time for yourself once the job is done.
The problem is, another job comes and another and you never take time to recharge your batteries.
I see this problem especially when working with vulnerable people. We see their needs as greater than ours, work ourselves into the ground and then eventually we have no more to give and step away altogether. If we had just taken some time for us we might just still be int he game and enjoying it.
Have a listen to get some tips on how to put yourself first so you can then have more to give for others.
