Create the Life You Envision for Yourself

Create the Life You Envision for Yourself
2
This is your life!
3
More often, we are pushed to think of others
instead of ourselves and this benevolent,
compassionate way of thinking leads to positive
outcomes.
4
Being selfless is a valuable trait, and we look
for it especially in our leaders.
5
When you become too selfless and not think of
yourself enough, then you may start feeling
resentful.
6
An example might be your friend asking for help
on a personal project and initially, you may be
happy to help.
7
But when there is demand for more commitment and
sacrifice on your end, giving up your time and
money.
8
And in reciprocation, when you ask for assistance
on a project of yours, she claims to be too busy
to help.
9
This is a situation where being too selfless can
actually lead to resentment and adversely affect
the relationship.
10
You need to make sure that even while striving to
be a compassionate person, your wants, needs, and
goals are still being met.
11
It is better to put yourself first in some
situations and check your boundaries to not sell
out on yourself.
12
Don't neglect yourself helping others
13
Have you ever felt completely drained when
listening to someone else vent about their
problems?
14
Being a sounding-board for your friends and
family is compassionate.
15
However, lending an open ear to everyone who
needs it may leave you feeling drained.
16
And who is there for you when you need a shoulder
to lean on? Are the people you come to rescue
whenever they need help available and able to do
the same for you?
17
Most people are happy to return the favor, as
long as you let them in.
18
Carrying your own problems all by yourself may
leave you feeling like you are doing all the
emotional lifting in the relationship, and that
is where the problem begins.
19
Your wants, needs, and goals are valuable
20
Most helpers are good at neglecting their own
needs and therefore, it is important to make sure
that your personal wants, needs, and goals are a
priority.
21
Most likely you cant focus entirely on yourself
while you lead, listen, and care for others.
22
But if you dont make yourself a priority you
cant be there for others.
23
Everyone will benefit when you are healthy,
happy, balanced and fulfilled.
24
And you wont have to deal with the feelings of
annoyance, resentment, and anger that come along
with neglecting your heart.
25
You don't get to do this twice- follow your heart
26
You only get one life and you follow your heart
and work hard to make your dreams a reality.
27
Sometimes that will mean you wont have the time
to be as compassionate as you want with others.
28
That is okay if you make an effort to help other
people, it is important to first focus on your
own goals.
29
As easy as it sounds to follow our dreams, it is
the hardest thing to do for many.

Let us help you, take the first small step to
creating a meaningful and fulfilling life.
