As I sit here, sipping my cup of tea, watching TV, I know there are a million other things I should be doing. I need to be packing to go back to school, I need to run to the post office, I have to do a bunch of errands. But instead, I'm sitting here enjoying my tea. I'm trying to learn to slow down a little and savor the small things. Life can get so crazy sometimes that I don't know when I'll be able to sit and just not think. My mind is always going, so that's a struggle. As I go in to the new year, I'm going to try to find at least a half hour a day to consciously relax. Whether it's enjoying tea in the morning or reading a book before I go to bed, it's time to think about my own well being. When I'm stressed, I don't perform to my best potential, and without that performance, I can't be the person I want to be. So another goal, take my time and think about me.
