This one is for people pleasers. A reminder to say what you need to say. In a world where “likes” are a barometer for whether or not we are showing up in an acceptable way, we try to please, attract and impress as many people as we can, and then live in fear that someone won’t approve or respond in the way we had hoped or expected them to. We’ve gotten so good at dividing ourselves into smaller and smaller pieces, that we end up stretched thin, pleasing no one, with an empty tank. Life is way too short to try and please everyone.

Stop people pleasing and say what you need to say; life is too short to try and please everyone in a world where likes determine acceptability.

The opportunity to experience your feelings without judgment, the ability to ground yourself in the present moment, and the chance to learn another critical skill-beginning again.

With practice, this skill can then be used in other areas of your life. It can often be helpful to bring yourself back to this moment and begin again.

How often do we allow others to hurt us? Your decision must be to step back, to step away from taking on whatever hurts may be directly or indirectly pointed at you. You wouldn't choose to be hurt. You would choose to be love and to feel loved. So begin with this. Become great at this. This is the ability to love yourself and to trust wholeheartedly in your goodness, your infinite power, your truth. with love Namaste!

Don't allow others to hurt you; step back and focus on loving and trusting yourself instead.
