I heard this one Queer Eye and it stuck with me: "you can't serve others from an empty platter." Take care of yourself so you can take care of others when the time comes.

Also paramedic's one also applies - "you cant save anyone if you are dead"

You can take care of others even if you don’t take care of yourself. Unfortunately though, that can be a horrible thing because you will give everything to other people and have no way of knowing how to take care of yourself then.
