Inclusive grinding

Great line from my feeds today:

If you grind hard everyday but simultaneously abandon your own needs, avoid inner work, and do not take care of your body - you’re hustling backwards. The real work is inclusive of you.

I heard something similar before, about how your compassion should include yourself.

So fking true, because everyone’s got to be on board with your plan. Your wife, kid, family. And most importantly, you. All of you. Your body. Your health. Your mind. Your soul.

If it’s not 100% inclusive, somewhere down the line, you’re gonna pay for the consequences. Often negative.

We pay, either way. We pay back in health, sanity, money, energy, purpose. The only difference is whether we pay now or we pay later.

I prefer to pay now.
