If you spend most of your time with draining people, you’ll live much of your life feeling drained. So, guard your heart. While this might sound selfish, it’s not. Self-care isn’t selfish. It gives you (and me) the energy we need to truly be present for the people who may not be as energizing. You can give only what you’ve got. And if you’ve got nothing left in the tank, you can’t help anybody.
