Today I give myself permission to.....
How do you want to complete that sentence? Is there something that you REALLY want to do, but just don't let yourself do it? Most of us can think of things we would like to do, but then come up with a list of reasons as to why we shouldn't do it. "There's not enough time." "I have the money, but I shouldn't spend it." "It's selfish to want to do something for myself." "There are so many other things that need to be done." I could go on forever. Do you want someone to give you permission to do what it is that you want? Are you waiting for someone to tell you that it's ok? Well, I'm telling you that it's ok! You have my permission (for whatever it's worth). You just need to give yourself permission!
Everyone deserves to take time for themselves - to do something, or buy something that makes them feel good! Just think about it. You can spend your time feeling sad that you aren't doing what it is that you want to do. You can spend your time coming up with every excuse in the book as to why you shouldn't do it. Or, on the other hand, you can turn your thinking around, and think about why you should do it.
Give yourself permission to do something for yourself. Taking care of yourself is important! Go for that walk. Read that book. Soak in the bathtub. Take that class. Buy that dress. Go out with friends. Take an hour, or a day, and do absolutely nothing. Give yourself permission to be good to yourself!
So, what is it that you are going to give yourself permission to do?
