HAD TO TAKE A BREAK

Hey been a lttle while. Apologies, had to take a little bit of a break from social media. I just felt myself being overwhelmed in all honesty, not from the the blogs but kind of everything. Even when writing the blogs, I genuinly don't think I was in the best place. After experienceing a few highs, back to back, e.g. Dogman premier, Paris, living with my freinds etc It took my a while to adjust to 'normal life'. I kind of felt void of purpose in a way. Then about a week ago I woke up and was like 'fuck this. I don't want to feel like this anymore', So I sat down and journaled my way to a solution. Creating rules for myself to follow. For example, things like giving myself 3 daily disciplines like Working out, meditating and reading. These things have really helped to ground me, as simple as they may be. But most of the time, the solutiong usually is simple. We're usually just so caught up in whatever problem we have that we often can't see how simple the solution is.
Taking a break really just gave me a chance to focus on myself and what the next steps are. Not only that, but to learn to be more present. Finding joy in the now rather then what is just ahead. I think everyone needs a break from time to time. Social media make us, well me at least, feel as though I'm not doing enough, or that I could be doing more with my time, that rest is for the weak and I should just keep going relentlessly every single day non stop. But in all honesty. It's kind of bullshit. Yes, I can and always strive to improve and be better, but we often forget that rest is apart of the work. A car with no fuel goes nowhere. You got to stop and refuel from time to time to get back on the road. So I guess that what I did. Refuelled.
