Don’t live your life pleasing others.

It’s wonderful to be considerate of others, but trying to please people isn’t as “good” as we think it is.

Striving to please others often makes us feel resentful and trapped, which makes us more bitter and unhappy.

When we try to please others and sacrifice for them, we are driven by some innate expectation or fear. We often try to please people for fear of being disliked, or we sacrifice for someone with the expectation that it’ll someone pay off in the end.

It’s normal for us human beings to have a strong desire to be liked and accepted. When people ask us for favours, we can complain about them taking advantage of us, but the truth is that we don’t like the fact that they’ve put us in a position where it’s so hard to say no.

When we try to please people, it’s because we often don’t know how to say “no” without coming across like we’re not a good or nice person.

The only way to stop worrying what other people think of us is to first be okay with who we are, to first accept ourselves so that we don't feel compelled to seek approval and acceptance from the people around us.

If you’re fear people not liking you because of your insecurities, understand that no human being on this earth is perfect. Everyone else too, is a work-in-progess, not just you.

You don’t have to pretend to be someone else so that people will like, accept or respect you. Trying to be a better version of ourselves is not the same as trying to be a different person.

Grow in your awareness of yourself, be kind and helpful because you want to, not because you fear judgement or worry about what people may think of you. Don’t live your life pleasing others, and be happy, always.
