I Know What You Mean - News and Feature Writing

Sometimes it feels like 24 hours in a day isn't enough. We wake up, go to school or work, and by the time we get home we're playing catch-up. It's homework for the next day or work we didn't get done at the office. We're cramming as many things as possible into the hours between sunrise and sunset.

By the time our heads hit the pillow, many of us are left wondering what we did for ourselves.

No matter how much you love your job or your course of study, you need a break. You need to take time to do something for YOU. That could be going for a walk and just taking a mental break.

My me time is usually in the form of reading a book. I do it every morning at 6:30 before I go about my day. Sometimes I even close the day with a few chapters. It keeps me focused and clears my mind.

Find something you can do that doesn't stress you out and DO IT EVERY DAY! Watch how much better your day gets (or prove me wrong and leave a comment below).

The "we" is a giveaway for audience. This is similar to something you did for The CR last year.

I'm not sure how I could prove you wrong. I think everyone is at least a little bit selfish and indulges in personal gratification each day. Some do it more than others.

I think of it more as "turn off" time. It's when I can dim my lights, put it in neutral, and just coast.

    This blog is a glimpse into my crazy life as a twenty-something female entrepreneur navigating life as the co-owner of a mother-daughter business. Things get pretty insane, but we make it all work.
