When things become too much,
When things are piling on top of you,
When the weight of the world feels like it is on top of your shoulders,
Stop, and take a breath.
Close your eyes. Inhale. Exhale. Repeat.
Take a second to realise how far you've come.
Take a minute to appreciate the little wins. The difference you make on a daily basis. The impact you're having on the people around you.
That sensation washing over your body, that's pride.
You absolutely deserve it.
The universe is unfolding precisely as it should.
You're in it for the long haul.
But don't forget that the long haul is made up of millions of short hauls.
Enjoy the ride. Release the pressure. Take a breath.
Lachie.
