I think there are actually two things you should carry with you at all times. Your wallet and your phone. In today’s world, you really need both of them. Phones are essential for connection, commerce, entertainment, and information at your fingertips. Wallets are a way to carry money, various cards, and your driver’s license. I think one day you will only need your phone for all of that but we aren’t there just quite yet.
Chilling out is important. After a full week of work, it’s good to relax. For me, it’s hard to do. In the back of my mind, I think I am just being lazy and I think there is something that needs to be done. I also have this anxiety that someone is going to call and beg for my help.
As I have said I have to work at setting boundaries and saying no. It is important to reclaim my time for myself instead of giving myself away. Sure, it’s nice to be needed but I don’t want to be needed so much at this stage in my life.
So as I write this, I am having some fun and enjoying the time to do stuff I want to do. Perhaps I should matter more to me.
