"We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own to-do list."
Simplified meaning
Sometimes, we get so busy taking care of others and getting things done that we forget to look after ourselves. Imagine you're always helping your friends with their homework, running errands for your family, and finishing work tasks late at night. After a while, you feel tired and stressed because you haven't taken any time for yourself. This quote is saying it's important to remember that your own well-being matters too. Just like you schedule time for work or helping others, you should also schedule time to do things that make you happy or help you relax, like reading a book, taking a walk, or painting. By making sure you take care of yourself first, you can become happier and healthier, and then you’ll be in a better position to help others.
