Time to get real.
Let’s just get this out there: We all have obstacles, we are all busy, and we naturally desire to wait until the perfect time to take care of ourselves. There are four obstacles that are always going to be there.
- Time. ⌚️
It always feels like there is a shortage of time, and it’s true. On any given day, there are so many things we “could and should” do that we are constantly feeling the time crunch. - Stress.
Nothing will completely remove the stress from everyday life. Traffic, deadlines, and getting sick are just a few examples of stress that we can’t avoid. - Other people. From kids to coworkers, family, and random people, we are always going to have to navigate other people in our lives in our quest to take care of ourselves.
- Our emotions.
This is another constantly changing variable. One day, you feel on top of the world, and the next day, you can’t imagine how you will put a smile on your face. Our feelings are not going away.
Getting on your Kijia (your path to taking amazing care of yourself) doesn’t remove the obstacles; it allows you to learn to navigate them and make them work for you!
