Pulling this affirmation from the archives because I needed to see it again.
No matter how much I would like it to be, my body is not a machine.
It turns out that I cannot survive indefinitely on ambition, caffeine, and a bajillion lists in my notes app. 🤦♀️
Apparently I also require things like:
✨ Water✨ Sleep✨ Food✨ Electrolytes
How rude!
It’s a lesson I often refuse to acknowledge, and when my body sends me the invoice, the price is higher than I want to pay.
I'm learning that taking care of myself isn't something I can put off until everything else is finished. It's something I have to do intentionally if I want the energy to keep showing up for the people, projects, and dreams I care about.
Still working on that lesson while surviving the first Monday of summer break with a migraine. 🙂
