The past couple of years we have been beat up mentally, emotionally and financially in many cases.
Many of us are weary of the continual negativity in the press, dealing with desperate sellers, and a continual stream of people in financial difficulties. Now, more than ever it is vital that we have an actual PLAN for self-care. Here are some suggestions that I have found to help me rejuvenate in this challenging market.
- Daily Excersise
- Proper Nutrition
- Helping others, serving in the community or church
- Prayer, faith and encouraging fellowship.
- Inspirational and Motivational Reading
- HUMOR
- Regular time off
- Sit down meals with family
- Enjoying the outdoors, nature.
- Accountability
- Simplifying
I suggest taking a personal inventory of your life and time. Is there anything that is taking more than giving to your energy? Is there an obligation you can delete? Do you need more time with your spouse, kids, or for your self? What floats your boat and builds up your spirit to be able to overcome the mental battle of swimming upstream in a down market?
September has always been a natural time for me to re-evaluate my life. I find it valuable to embrace the changing of the seasons, and make adjustments that will allow me to be more productive. Sometimes this means cutting out something, sometimes it means adding something.
You only have one body, one life, one family, one chance. Be good to yourself, and it will make a difference in all aspects of your life!
