No matter how steady we try to keep our lives there is always a never-ending state of upheaval. People come and go, relationships can come together as quickly as they can break apart - and at the end of the day you're pretty much the only real constant in your life.

Learn yourself. Work yourself. Love yourself is what my mum would always tell me as a little girl growing up. And after all these years I finally understand what she means. I decided to take a night off from my busy schedule and booked myself in at the quirky QT hotel located in the heart of Sydney CBD for a nights stay as a little getaway slash treat this week. I headed to the QT hotel straight after work and had a beautiful dinner at Gowings Bar and Grill located within the hotel, followed by a long bubble bath and a homemade espresso martini and finally got around to reading that novel I had put off for so long.

Sometimes it's good to take a step back and to make yourself a priority. You owe it to yourself to take care of you.
