Don’t be a martyr
I’m a very driven professional and most days I’m in the office by 6am(I work at a hospital) and don’t get home until 5. I have 24 hour accountability for a 24 hour department. I have always had the mindset that taking time for myself during the day wasn’t possible or the right thing to do. I have to be present and visible as much as possible. Today I had staff meetings at 530am, so I missed my morning gym session because they don’t open until 5am. So, I decided to “sneak” over to our gym next to the hospital and get a session in over my lunch period. To my surprise, there were 5-6 of my colleagues there doing the same thing. It really put my mind at ease that I wasn’t doing something wrong and we should support people taking care of themselves. I have to stop being a martyr and take back control of my life and my health.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk!
