You excel at anticipating the needs of others. You want to make people happy.
Your strength is that you are a nice person. You like to be helpful and prefer to keep the peace. You are such a good friend to have!
The problem with People Pleasing is that you do not feel valued. You are so concerned about taking care of everyone else that you forget about what you want or need. Besides, you do not have any time to take care of yourself since you are so exhausted from meeting the needs of all the people around you.
You’ve got the Disease to Please! You end up feeling unimportant, taken advantage of, or even resentment towards the people you love.
Here is the good news:
- You Are Valuable! You were born valuable. You do not have to do anything to earn your worth because it was given to you when you were created. Your value never changes. You are just as valuable as everyone else.
- Healthy Boundaries are a Learned Skill! Unlike our inherent value, healthy boundaries are NOT given to us at birth. Wherever you are on your journey to learning boundaries is OK. It is 100% possible for People Pleasers to transform into Boundary Bosses! Developing Boundaries will help you become true to yourself and more compassionate towards your loved ones!
