The Busy Cobbler 

There was a cobbler who lived in a big village. As he was the only cobbler in town, everyone   to him to get their footwear repaired. He was so busy that he didn't have time to repair his own boots .This  so wasn't a problem at first, but over time, his boots began to wear off and fall apart. While he worked feverishly on everyone else's shoes, his feet got blisters and he started to limp. His customers started to worry about him, but he reassured them that everything was alright. 

However, after a few years, the cobbler's feet were so injured that he could no longer work and nobody's footwear got repaired. As a result, the entire town started to limp in pain; all because the cobbler never took time to repair his own boots. If you are in a responsible position and are one of the important links in the group's survival chain, and if you do not look after yourself, after a while you'll be no good to anyone else either. 

Your best intentions will mean nothing and you'll be unable to do what you're meant to do. This goes for leaders, social workers, teachers even parents, breadwinners and homemakers. If you don't take the time to care for yourself, no one else will.
