What if you valued you more than how much you value others?

Time and again it so happens that we may happen to value other people, their opinions, their thoughts, feelings, and emotions have more value and importance for us than our own.

I used to get into this space where I would rather put others' opinions above that of mine so that I can be seen as someone who is right and appreciated. Have you ever done that? What does that create?

The most interesting part of this was that what I had decided I would achieve by keeping someone's opinion above me never seemed to come around😂 I used to think "if I would just be nice persistently, they might actually see that I'm not that bad or I am the one for them", oh oh, and "what can I do that would make them like me?", "if I just loved them enough or did what they would like (said or unsaid) things might actually change". You've never done such things, have you?

What does this create? Does it create more ease for you or less ease for you? Does it allow you to be more of you or do you find yourself getting lesser and lesser of you?

By now you might have an idea what I am talking about😛

What if this doesn't have to be the case? What if you can be you and allow others' opinions and considerations to just be interesting points of view?

What would including you in your choices create for you? What if you valued yourself more than you value others? What if you were your priority? Would you like that?

What if you for the next few days, you be a priority for yourself?

Catch yourself trying to make others a priority and ask "if I was truly choosing for me here, what would I choose?"

Have fun guys!
