Excuse Consciousness

This piece explores the sneaky nature of excuses, particularly the go-to phrase “I’m tired,” and encourages readers to question whether they’re truly exhausted or avoiding something deeper. Drawing on personal experiences, it highlights the importance of recognising our real needs—whether it’s rest, movement, or mental recharge—and challenges us to be honest with ourselves. By identifying fear or resistance hiding behind excuses, we can take meaningful action and find balance in our lives. On the other side of those excuses? That’s where the good stuff happens.
