Although Chinese food is typically not on my nutrition plan, I make a few exceptions once in a while. I just cannot resist those fortune cookies! I recently treated myself to a fortune cookie and was please by what I found inside. The fortune in the cookie read:
“The best investment you can make is in yourself!”
This is so true in so many ways. Over the last year I have learned that I need make sure that I come first in my life at least part of the time. I have made time to workout on a consistent (some would say crazy) schedule to improve my physical health. I have made time to read for pleasure and not just for work to improve my mental health. I have made time to take yoga classes for my spiritual, mental, and physical health combined. I have made time to try new things (like going to the Dickens Fair – forthcoming post on that) and stay in touch with friends.
I have invested in different areas of my life and I am definitely seeing a return – in the form of happiness! Make an investment in yourself … you won’t regret it!
