I touch on this topic a lot because I am always surrounded by people who think of others before thinking of themselves. They would rather put people’s happiness before their own and I also find myself in that same boat. It’s not just people’s happiness they always put before their own but other stuff before their own endeavors. The long hours at work just to come home and forget about their side project. I feel that you have to do better for you, so you don’t feel drained from the weight of the world.

Sometimes I feel like I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders with trying to attend everything, support everyone, keep up at work and then I come home, only to forget about me. Forget about my own projects and endeavors that I want to work on. We get tunnel vision and don’t set the necessary time aside for our own projects. Do better for you and set time aside for you. Even if you’re not working on anything, take time aside to just relax. With the pressures that come from a world that wants you to conform to societies standards, take a step back and focus on you.
