Pay myself first
The more we have to do, the greater care we need to take of our health and the more ‘me time’ we require to re-energise. Ironically, most people run their lives the opposite way: the more they have to do, the less care they take of themselves until they hit burnout.
This task is repeated from the last 12 Days of Christmas program, because these checkups need to be done annually (or more frequently).

| Get Into Action!
If something isn’t scheduled, the chances are it isn’t going to happen. Pay yourself first, by taking 15 minutes to book in the following for the new year:
- 1x GP checkup (including skin check)
1x dental checkup - 1x pampering activity (whatever that looks like for you - massage, manicure, hairdresser etc)
- 1x girls’ or boys’ night out
- 1x day off work for no reason
