When building a profitable practice, it’s important to remember self-care. The definition of self-care will vary from one person to another. One might equate spending some quiet time alone with a good book as self-care. Others may view retirement after decades of working as a way to care for themselves. The goal in both situations is to develop an environment conducive to a healthier mind and better emotional balance. You want to avoid stress and strife. Self-care means more time enjoying positive emotions, and less time dealing with drama. This is an important gift to give yourself because the dangers of constant drama are very serious.
