Don’t burn yourself out. Don’t procrastinate when it comes to slowing down and giving yourself a rest. Remember that you don’t have to earn your breaks. You already deserve them. It’s dangerous to keep going and going when you’re running on fumes, so make sure that you relax more in 2022. Be kinder to yourself. Don’t forget the importance of sitting back and doing nothing for a while.
Don’t quit while you’re ahead. Don’t talk yourself out of pursuing something special because you’re scared you’re going to fail. Put yourself out there more in the new year. Give yourself a fighting chance. If you never try, then you’re never going to achieve your wildest dreams. And if you give up too early, you’re never going to see what you’re capable of achieving. Most goals aren’t accomplished the first time around. You have to try again and again until you see results. So don’t assume one failure is the end of the road.
Don’t compare your successes to the people around you. And don’t worry too much about sticking to a strict timeline. You can’t control how quickly you’re going to reach success. However, you can control your own actions. You can control whether or not you keep going. Forget about how long it’s taking you to reach your dreams and focus on the task at hand. Enjoy the ride and trust that you’ll eventually reach your destination if you stick with it.
Don’t push your emotions away. Embrace them. Even though you might not want to think about whatever has been bothering you, running from your issues isn’t going to solve them. It’s only going to extend your pain. You need to confront your demons head-on. You need to deal with whatever is eating away at you before it snowballs into a bigger problem. Do yourself a favor by letting your emotions loose. Let yourself cry. Let yourself feel.
If someone is hurting your feelings on a daily basis without any intention of stopping, decide that you are no longer going to put up with their behavior. Either sit them down to talk about your feelings and demand they start treating you better or walk away for good. Either way, don’t allow them to continue disrespecting you because you deserve to feel comfortable with everyone in your world. Stop tolerating toxic humans in 2022.
You do so much for others. It’s time you start treating yourself with that same level of tenderness and care. Make yourself a priority. Focus on enhancing your happiness and ridding yourself of pain. Make 2022 the year where you practice self-care, where you put yourself first, where you put real effort into your mental health. If you want this year to be the best one yet, it starts by giving yourself the attention you deserve.
