It's Friday

By LaQuita Burden, RN, BSN

Hello All, It's Friday.

Wishing you a beautiful weekend.  Inhale peace, exhale stress, inhale faith, exhale worry, just be and breathe.  Repeat after me... This is my last year of tolerating less than I deserve.  Just because you don't require much, doesn't mean you deserve the bare minimum.  Treat yourself the way you want to be treated by others... love yourself and you will be loved.

You're allowed to feel overwhelmed, but what you're not going to do is sit there and give up.  You're not going to let one setback define you or let fear hold you back.  You're not going to undo all the progress you've made by finding comfort in self-sabotage.  You have too much brilliance and resilience to let it end like this. 

Rest, recalibrate, trust your inner compass and take that next step. If you rearrange the letters in "DEPRESSION" you'll get "I PRESSED ON. " Your current situation is NOT your final destination. Don't give up.
