Three *Difficult* ways of self-care
Self care is more than just a bubble baths, and soothing music.
Hello dear friend,
When it comes to self-care, people often picture luxury salons, bubble baths, and soothing music.
But there’s so much more effort involved in taking care of yourself than just going to a salon.
Here are three *difficult* ways of self-care that every individual must adopt (these are especially relevant for creators, authors, and solopreneurs)
1. Journal your deepest fears.
These will help you understand why your heart of afraid of what it is.
Once you figure that out, you can work on ways to move past the fears and take action despite them.
2. Stay connected with your purpose.
When you work on your business, it’s easy to get lost in the motions and only thinks about the mechanical things, like creating wealth and nurturing your personal brand.
If you lose touch with the reason you started doing what you’re currently doing, you’ll feel lost and demotivated.
Burnouts will become common.
To avoid that, it’s important to keep reminding yourself the reason why you ventured down the path of solopreneurship.
Journaling helps, as does meditation.
Sometimes, a good heart-to-heart with a close friend can give you more clarity than you get anywhere else.
3. Take enough breaks.
It’s easy to lose yourself in the grind and stay glued to the computer screen for hours in the hopes of making progress.
It’s hard to actually take some time off to re-evaluate your goals and give yourself some much-needed time away from the computer.
Find the balance that fuels you, and make sure to give yourself time to recover from exhaustion.
You’re not a machine to keep working for 16-hour days without taking time off for some introspection.
