To Whom Are You Responsible For?

We’re going to get back to the diagnostics and how to use your body as a diagnostic, but we really need to address these very important points. My question is who wants some sexy responsibilities? You know, being responsible? And one of my mentors told me about being successful. They take responsibility for everything that happens to them and everything that doesn’t happen to them instead of blaming the economy, blaming the government, blaming the dog, blaming whatever the weather is.

So what are some things that we need to take responsibility for? Some of us have responsibilities, like some of us are parents; some of us have parents that we know we need to take care of. Whom are you responsible for? And here’s the thing: if you’re responsible for them, then you need to be able to help them, but only if. In order to help them, you have to be present. You have to be here. You have to be healthy, and if you don’t have your health, there’s no way that you’re going to be responsible or have the energy.

Let’s say you have kids, if you have kids, and you’re responsible for them. If you’re sick all the time, then whose going to take them to their activities? Who’s going to take them to school? Who’s going to help them? Also, help them do their homework? But help them with their homework. Who’s going to be there for them if you’re sick? Because if you’re sick, you can’t work, which means you don’t have an income, which means increased stress and fewer opportunities for your kids.

So how does any of that help anybody? The solution is actually very simple. It’s not easy, but it’s very simple. The solution is to get your health right, focus on the number one priority of health, and I was reminded of this in this example, like when you’re on an airplane. Do all those explanation things in the beginning, and then they say when these oxygen masks drop down.

Who do they tell you to put that oxygen mask on first? This may seem so stupid and simple, but we often forget about this. We don’t remember this when we get busy in life, so who should you put the oxygen mask on first: your kid or your spouse or your parents? Who should you put it on first? They tell you to put it on you first. Why?  Because if you pass out, how are you going to help? You’re the person who’s responsible for putting on their oxygen mask.

It seems so simple when we talk about this analogy, but when we come to daily life, we forget about it. This is something we can’t, we should not forget about, because by the time you think about this, sometimes it’s too late. Sometimes your health is so bad that you’re bedridden, so who’s going to help your kids? So if you’re being responsible, you need to take care of yourself.

You need to put that oxygen mask on you first. You need to put it on yourself first so that you can put it on the person you’re responsible for. Because you have to be alive in order to help the person next to you. So, if you need some assistance with your health and restoring organ function to keep you from becoming bedridden, you know that Acupuncture, Chinese medicine, achieves integrative health, so call five one two two, six zero one, seven one zero, and we can help you restore function.

That’s the beauty of Chinese medicine. It’s very important that in order to take care of the people around you, you’ve got to focus on your health because, in the long run, you’re not only going to be able to take care of the people you’re responsible for. But you’re not even going to be able to take care of yourself, and then you actually become a burden to someone else. We are the number one acupuncture and wellness clinic in Central Austin, Texas.
