Your Health is your Second Job

We all have our careers we do everyday. But now especially with a diagnosis, but life in general too, your health is your second job. Whether you make time for this new job or not, you better start. For me and my MS, any doctors appointments I have to go to, I look at it as doing my "job" in keeping healthy. I do not look at it anymore as a chore, rather than a job well done by doing the best I can in it. I look at it as I am lucky to have the time to go to my appointments and lucky to continue to fight. If you look for the good and the positive in your new job, it makes it almost enjoyable in a weird way. It makes the time sitting at the doctors office more like "me time" rather than " I do not have time for this" attitude. If you feel like you do not have time for your health, you better make it. No one is going to do that for you, so you must! Stop for a coffee either before or after to enjoy, bring a good book, bring a journal to write in, or people watch (that is always funny or you can notice someone who has it way worse than you do, but let's go with the funny things you can see). So are you ready to take on your new job with determination and positive attitude? I hope so!
