85: My People Pleaser Relapse
85: My People Pleaser Relapse
I recently had 2 People Pleaser relapses. One was just for a day. One was for a couple months. Why is it so hard to stop pleasing all. the. people???
I know that as an Upholder (see article below), being a people pleaser may well be something I always struggle with. But, even if it’s a life long challenge, I will kick off 2017 recognizing where I fell short in 2016. I will recognize what I lost by prioritizing other peoples’ needs before my own.
In 2017 I will:
- Say NO more
- Say YES less
- Stand up for myself
- Tune in to my body and really listen
- Push myself to keep firm boundaries around my time, money, space, goals
- Start following my intuition in terms of where I really want to go in life over the next few years
What will you do to really listen to yourself and your needs as you prepare to enter a new year?
