As a self-proclaimed introvert (who is actually quite bubbly and friendly), I relish in silent moments and taking time for myself to recharge. Being alone is precious as it gives me time to think, as life can be crazy sometimes - crazy good and crazy bad or in between. While I don't out right advertise all the work I do within a day or week, that is my choice. I have wonderful moments and highlights every week whether they are related to blogging, my job or social life and share at my own accord. At other times, I'm boggled down with oh so much work yet I don't complain as I'm passionate about what I do.
Taking time for myself is my time to be creative, be productive but most importantly appreciate what life brings my way and the people around me - it is time to reflect. Without this, I certainly get overwhelmed with all I'm trying to juggle mentally, and this certainly causes extra anxiety and stress. On a side note, appreciate the power of saying no - I've recently learned to adapt this into my lifestyle and it has done wonders. Going on, being by yourself gives you the motivation and the opportunity to open your mind and explore new ideas, then put those ideas to good use. We're so concerned with finding ways to fill every single minute of every day interacting with people that we forget to take a step back and give ourselves some quality 'me' time. I've come to realized that fear of missing out is a thing of the past - while I do live for the present, remember that if you're mental batteries aren't recharged, how will you function on a day to day basis?
So whether you enjoy having a sweet treat in solitude or sipping on tea in a coffee shop or playing a sport - find what makes you happy and unwind!
