No time for a Nervous Break Down now … Can I pre-schedule this now, for 5 years down the road ... Ahhh, the value of Date Night !

Saw a picture posted on face book today, almost like this one I've add here.  It said, “I don’t EVEN have time for a nervous breakdown “.  I had to let out a serious chuckle !

It’s about true, isn’t it ?

With every thing we have going on in our lives … Whether it’s work … Running a household … Keeping the house clean … Paying the bills … Cutting the grass … Keeping a tight budge ! Not to mention if you already have grandchildren or your folks are getting up there in age !

We are all basically in the same boat.   Even our kids.  And in general, not much one can do to avoid many of the daily stresses that come at us !


Or is there ?

Before you get to that point of pulling out your hair (or someone else) or begin to feel like “who cares” or even start to wonder if YOU care … STOP ! Whether it’s STOP right now, and take a total look, or reality check, to some of the things in your life, or at least remembering to STOP, that very moment before you quickly blow !

No matter how much we wish or think we can, we do NOT have the powers to change the World around us !  Therefore, the only choices we have, is taking a look at ourselves and analyzing our choices.  Then see if can't make some life altering changes !  

If you have put off a break down this long ... What's a little longer ?  You could soon discover, "a little" change just might NOT hurt you !



Why not begin by asking yourself …
* Do all our life stresses have purpose ? A cause ? A value to us ? To whom ?
* Are we holding onto some stresses (and why) that it may be time to change ? Or eliminate ?
* Are we willing doing the things we love or want to do in life for ourselves ? Or for others ?

If you don’t have these answers, right off the tip of your head, consider hiring a life coach to pull these answers, desires, and drives out of you (motivate you) !

Or could it be, as simples as taking out the time to reorganize yourself ? Our family ? Our situations ? Whether it be at home, work, or maybe even the clubs we belong to.

Why not, consider hiring someone to help you organize special aspects, or all aspects of your life !

Most importantly ... Date Night.  Whether it be a date with yourself ... your friends ... your partner !   Get your nails done ... Go to a movie ... Go dancing !  Truly, if you think you're too busy, or actually THINK you do not need this, then it is most certainly time for BIG CHANGES in your life !

Like my mother has preached at me for years, because I'm a work-a-holic, EVERYONE needs variety in their life (which is the topic of another article down the road).

And my boss at the bank use to emphatically tell me, “Make it a self rule, that you will NEVER cancel an appointment with yourself”.




Yes, I would rather work 24/7, I would !   I love to work !  It keeps me busy !  It keeps me out of trouble !  However, when I take a night off, it really is FUN !
