What Do You Need?
I’ve been asking myself this question a lot lately. Because we are always getting caught up, moving from task to task, without stopping to ask ourselves what we need. And yes, we aren’t always able to give it to ourselves in the moment. But this simple question and check-in with ourselves is necessary.
Where do you need more fun?
Where do you crave more adventure?
Are you feeling tired?
Are you bored?
What do you need?
Take a moment and answer this question and then, find an accessible way to give it to yourself.
For example, if you need more sleep, you may not be able to take a nap right now. But can you get to bed earlier? If you need more fun, you may not be able to go on vacation, but can you have lunch with friends?
I’ll be talking a lot about our needs and how we can begin to give ourselves what we want on my book tour next week. If you need community, laughter, a moment for yourself? Come to a book stop near you.Also, ALL EVENTS ARE FREE :). All you need to bring is yourself (and some friends if you can), and get your book at the event xBROOKLYN, NY: JUNE 10 at Barnes + Noble on Atlantic Ave
