That’s right. You. Y is all about you. You are the most important thing. It’s you baby. You are what you eat. You give love a bad name.
I mean, how many times has it been about someone else? You are always sacrificing for your family, your job, your pets, your writing… the list goes on!
So today – make it all about you. If you can’t do it today, do it in the next week or two.
Find a place to go, even if it is in your own back yard, and just make it about you.
Start a page in your journal or online diary (I use Penzu – love it!) and make it all about you. What do you want? What would you do if there were no consequences? Where would you live if you had the choice? What is your dream job?
These are questions that should get you on a track to questioning your intent in life and really get your head spinning. I mean, there is only one you. You should be nice to you. It is so important to value yourself, if you don’t, no one else will.
Every day, I try to ask myself a hard question.
Questions like:
If this was the last day of your life, would you wan to live it this way?
If helping someone out meant a slight inconvenience, would you still help them?
It is amazing how much we get back when we give just a little.
So make today all about you.
Journal prompt for the day:
What does a day ALL ABOUT YOU look like?
Good points. Sometimes it’s nice just to have a you… I mean me… day.

I just had a ‘me’ day! Breakfast in town, then two hours with writing buddies, followed by team lunch, then the pub! No cooking, and now sipping wine with feet up… Yay! Good post.
