You can’t pour from an empty cup.
– While we’re wired to put family, work, and community first, that selflessness only works if the source is maintained.
– Taking time for your own fitness and mental health isn’t selfish. It’s necessary maintenance.

CoT: “A lot of times people look at the negative side of what they feel they can’t do. I always look on the positive side of what I can do.” – Chuck Norris
“Anything you want is just on the other side of an uncomfortable emotion.” – Sara Brewer
