Looking Outward and Inward in My Musings

How considerate a person is shall always be high in my list. The importance of this trait can not be stressed enough - whether I’m getting to know new people, or maintaining bonds with my already limited circle. This includes: respecting my (and others’) time, establishing proper boundaries, and saying thank you / sorry / etc., among many others. It doesn’t hurt to be a decent human being, after all.

On a personal level, I’ve started to be a bit more considerate to myself by not beating myself up for every error that occurs, learning to say no when necessary, and taking care of my body through exercise + diet. I’d like to think that in our pursuit to please others, we neglect ourselves in the process. Such shouldn’t be the case.
