So lately I have been thinking about what it means to live your best life. Not many of us know how to live our best lives. We think pleasing others and helping selflessly means we are living. Yes helping people makes the world a little better but, if we focus on helping others we tend to forget to take care of ourselves. How can we help others if we are in such a dark pit? yes, we may be able to shine a light on somethings. All I am saying is that to fully be happy and able to help others we must do it piece by piece.
If life has kicked you down and you fear you may never get up just remember that you are not alone. The choices we make to help ourselves set us up to better impact the world. I have grown to know that true self-help makes us so more open to change and the willingness to help others. Start with yourself and helping others through tough situations will come easier.
