>Invest in yourself, not your job.

This quote echoes through my mind on a daily basis. I don’t know why it’s so hard to action. Maybe because at work it’s easier to get a “good job!” then doing something yourself and affirmations feel good.

It’s a default action of mine.

In my mind, if I don’t know what to work on at any given time, I default to working on self-improvement.

If I’m feeling overwhelmed or confused, I default to self-improvement. This could mean anything from going on a long walk or run, to reading a book, to sitting and reflecting in boredom. It could take 30 minutes or I could devote weeks or months, in some cases, to it.

How do you know what to improve? Meaning, there’s so many options! How do you choose?
