Facing the Music, Setting Boundaries with Social Media

"When you cut out the things that tax your energy needlessly, there’s more time for the things that matter most..."

*I’m sharing my reflections during a recent break from IG which helped me reflect on a lot of things, and I hope it will benefit some of you too!*
.
It's a continuous battle finding that happy medium between having our lives together (or the appearance thereof) while juggling parenthood, filling the roles of a loving spouse/family member/friend, work obligations, having a successful career, pursuing individual fitness goals, maintaining a social life...I could go on (and I'm sure you have a list all your own too).
.
There is a lot of pressure from social media to do "all the things", to win at everything all the time, but how realistic is that standard?
.
Are the continuous pulls in every direction diluting our ability to process the present? Is it something we allow to take over, or more of a subconscious shift that society has taken as a whole?
.
These are some of the pressing questions I've asked myself lately, and I started to realize that the continual draw on my attention and energy was turning from a positive light to shadow.
 .
When that happens, friends, no matter what the area in your life, it's time to take a step back and evaluate.
.
That's exactly what I did...and taking that step helped me to see other areas that needed attention.
.
Relationships that were lacking the same care of prior years, home projects that were put off with being "too busy", or due diligence in the "official business" category that had fallen down the priority list (among other things).
.
It was so apparent I was completely off-center from the outside looking in, but in the midst of everything I was trying to "balance" it was much harder to pick up on the cause(s).

"I'm opening up about this to let you know that its OKAY to feel overwhelmed..."

...and it's also 100% OKAY to take a step back to self-audit and realign your priorities when something is bothering you deep down. 
.
When a situation feels off, listen to that discernment in your spirit, and take an objective look at your current circumstances from a distance.
.
If that self-analysis reveals some things that need to be limited or curtailed in order to achieve better fulfillment, make those adjustments for yourself before things start to unravel.
.
Whether its a bad habit, a social media platform, an unhealthy relationship or some other factor you can control, assess, take note, re-prioritize, and act accordingly.
.
As hard as it might be, having that brutal honesty with yourself will allow you to make room for the things that matter most.
