There's a way to do that?

I haven't felt that yet. YET. But I doubt I will.

meditate, exercise, take time for yourself, learn to say NO (politely), know your limits

It spins out too often, but I believe taking time for yourself is the most important thing to do. Never lose the real you. Stay true to yourself and your needs daily.

I drink. ;)

Been there, done that, Silly Girl! ;)

an agenda!!! and pure discipline.

I don't have time to think about taking time for myself let alone actually getting that time. I have been feeling the presure for too long. I love my husband and 4 young kids, but today is one of those 'screaming my head off and no one is listening days'

It's important to remind yourself that you're in the driver's seat. You always have a choice and can say "no" if and when demands become unreasonable. You also need to remind yourself of what 'really' matters most to you - and direct your efforts accordingly. And remember; "if the Chef doesn't take care of herself, everyone starves."

Beer!

Go out and do things, have a life list. I add to mine everyday, makes you feel alive to wants and then even better when you tick them off your list. Make them reasonable and you will feel good about your everyday life. Just go do something that is within your reach (locally) and embrace it,and smile. A smile is the best mood booster, just smile at someone and watch them glow. Be afraid to try something out of your comfort zone and you will be exhilerated by the butterflies in your stomach...that is an amazing feeling and you will find yourself wanting more of that....that is how to keep your life from spinning out of control,keep it fun.

Do what you want to make yourself happy, I've just started to learn that at the age of 27 but its going to take some time, just put yourself FIRST !
