This is a reminder that I need for myself, sometimes, and I thought I would share it with all of you.  Do you have a mile-long “to do” list?  Remember, all you can do is all you can do.  It is important to listen to your body and track your own level of energy.  If you’re honestly out of oomph, take a break!

Do you beat yourself up when you do not accomplish everything you set out to do?  I know I have a tendency to do this, sometimes.  I found myself doing it a lot less once I realized that self-punishment does not lead to increased productivity.  Actually, it does quite the opposite…it saps the energy that I need to fuel my passions and accomplish my goals.

So, treat yourself gently, today.
