Nothing is permanent. Don't stress too much because no matter how bad the situation is, it will change.

🙅‍♀️Pleasing other people instead of yourself can have a number of negative consequences, including:

👉Low self-esteem: When you constantly put the needs of others before your own, you are sending yourself the message that you are not important. This can lead to low self-esteem and a lack of self-confidence.

👉Stress and anxiety: Trying to please everyone can be very stressful and anxiety-provoking. You may constantly worry about what others think of you and whether you are doing enough. This can lead to physical and mental health problems.

👉Resentment: When you feel like you are always giving and never receiving, you may start to feel resentful towards others. This can damage your relationships and make it difficult to trust others.

👉Lack of authenticity: When you are constantly trying to please others, you are not being true to yourself. This can lead to feelings of emptiness and dissatisfaction.

It is important to remember that you cannot please everyone all the time.
There will always be someone who is not happy with you, no matter what you do. It is more important to focus on pleasing yourself and living a life that is true to your values.

Here are some tips for putting your own needs first:

Identify your needs and wants. What is important to you? What do you want to achieve in life? Once you know what you need and want, you can start to make choices that align with your values.

Set boundaries. It is important to set boundaries with the people in your life. This means communicating your needs and wants, and saying no when you need to.

Be assertive. Assertiveness is the ability to communicate your thoughts and feelings in a clear and direct way. It is important to be assertive when you are asking for what you need or when you are saying no.

Take care of yourself. Make sure to take care of your physical and mental health. This includes eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly. It also includes taking time for yourself to relax and de-stress.

It is not selfish to put your own needs first. In fact, it is essential for your happiness and well-being. When you take care of yourself, you are better able to take care of others.
