Realizing Your Limits

Like I mentioned, the last few weeks have gotten pretty busy. I realized today that I need to simplify my life. So, I:

1) Regrettably, canceled dinner plans with friends I havent seen in a long time. (good friends understand when you have to do this)

2) Cancelled my participation in a video shoot for the film I am producing - we are shooting a fundraising teaser. I only canceled bc I know they have plenty of help already and, since I am NOT a cameraman, I really dont have to be there. I need a mental health day.

It's so important to realize your limits. So you can be healthy, happy and well-rested for when you are needed. That is one thing I took away from having health issues this summer: I'm no longer willing to burn the candle at both ends. I have to take care of myself so that I can be the best person that I can be in both my personal and my professional life. :)

Don't be afraid to take time off when its needed!
