Setting Boundaries and Breaking the Cycle
Breaking the cycle of people-pleasing can be challenging, especially when it feels ingrained in your behavior. Start by asking yourself if you genuinely want to do something and be honest about your true desires. Take the time to get to know yourself and identify what truly refills you. Set practical boundaries, such as blocking off time for yourself on your calendar, and remember that you may disappoint others, but you are not harming them. Prioritize your own well-being and learn to say no when necessary.
