First off here’s wishing you a Happy New Year!! Can you believe it’s already the end of December? This year went by so fast, faster than any other that I can remember. I probably say that every year, but boy the years seem to be zooming by!

I’ve been spending this week figuring out what I want to accomplish in the new year, and also making note of other things that I want continue with. One of them is definitely reminding myself to set aside more self love moments. The quote below is one of the things I’m going to continue working on too. I started in little ways and some big ones, but it’s something I need to be mindful of all the time.

I think as women we have a tendency to put other people’s needs before our own. It doesn’t seem to matter how powerful and successful we are, our needs rarely come before those we love. We also don’t share enough of the burden. For me, it’s because I find it faster to do it myself.

I shared a little humor on this, and it is sooo true!

Of course this means that I end up doing practically everything myself. This is definitely something else that I need to work on in the new year and be more mindful of. What about you? Are you like me, or have you found a better balance? And if you fall into the latter group I would love to know what you do, because I’m surrounded by women who are trying to do everything at great expense to their health and well being.

Well I got off track from what I was going to originally share, but if you know me or chatted with me on Instagram then you know that’s pretty much the norm for me. haha I do want to close out this old year with big wishes that your new year is filled with love, joy, and empowerment!

Happy New Year!!
