I can be kind to others, but I push myself too hard.

I can't refuse requests, I put off taking breaks, and I blame myself when I fail.

Instead of trying to change my life all at once, I'll start by re-evaluating "how I treat myself."

Taking breaks, setting boundaries, reducing my burden, changing the words I use to myself.

Small choices may gradually change where I am and how I use my time.
