Do you really self-care?

Self-care is a big deal and a buzz word right now.

Yes, it’s important to care for yourself but some people get it wrong.

Self-care is not meant to be and escape from your life and it’s challenges.

If that’s the case, you need to have a serious look in the mirror and make some choices.

If you cared about yourself you’d show up every single day and do the work.

If you cared about yourself you’d look after your body and keep it in the best shape you can.

If you cared about yourself you’d pay attention to what you consume both from a food and information point of view.

If you cared about yourself you’d harden the fuck up and work at your goals without looking for excuses.

If you cared about yourself you’d respect yourself enough to know when to say no.

And when to say yes.

If you cared about yourself you’d do whatever you can to create a life you don’t need to escape from.

If you cared about yourself you’d not be looking for excuses for any of the above points.

Yes, self-care is important but as a part of your life and not as a way to escape from it.
