Put It Second

We often get caught up in pleasing or showing up for others that we forget about ourselves. You take care of your children, your partner, your family, and even co-workers daily. Who takes care of you? When it comes to pleasing those around you, pursuing advancement in your career, embarking on a new endeavor, put it second, and yourself first. Those around you will thank you. Your future self will thank you. Understanding the importance of putting your health and wellness before other things in life will open doors and take you places you could never imagine. It is how you become the best version of yourself and reach your full potential. This translates to tranquility in your life and in those things around you.Putting yourself also means prioritizing self-development. Self-development is an essential part of a person's success and happiness. How disciplined you are will reflect directly in your personal and professional life. Self-development can generally be defined as gaining information needed in a person's working life, desiring to find your own freedom, connecting with your own sense of worth, acquiring new information and skills, learning and re-learning for the purpose of one's physical, financial, and all-around development through life. Before you go out and attempt to conquer your goals, career, or business endeavor, you need to conquer yourself. If you pursue the world before you develop yourself you will run into situations that you have no idea how to handle because you simply have not taken the time to understand yourself first. Conquer yourself, or be conquered. This series, written by Tee Seabrone (Modestee), will teach you to put yourself first, sometimes.
