About this Quote

This quote by Wilt Chamberlain is a suggestion that when we put ourselves first and do what we need to do to look after ourselves, it can be viewed as self-centered by others. It is necessary to keep in mind that looking after ourselves is not a selfish act, however rather a necessary one. Self-care is important for our mental and physical health, and it is necessary to prioritize it. It is likewise crucial to remember that when we look after ourselves, we are much better able to take care of others. Taking care of ourselves is not an indication of selfishness, however rather a sign of self-love and regard. We need to not hesitate to put ourselves initially and do what we need to do to look after ourselves.
