When you ignore your own happiness for the happiness of others...what are you communicating?
When you take care of everything for everyone...what are you communicating?
When you read the questions did you answer them? If not, take a minute to do so please. Give them careful thought and think about your answers too when you do answer the questions okay?
What are you communicating?....here are just a few things to think about...
- that you don't value yourself enough...that your needs are unimportant to you
- that it's okay for others to ignore your needs too
- that you care more for the needs of others and will make yourself unhappy to do so
- that you're a push over - easily manipulated into doing things for others that they can do for themselves
- that you don't trust anyone to do things as good as you can
- that the people in your life are incapable of doing things for themselves so you have to do it for them
- that you think you can do it all...and some will gladly let you do it all too and then watch as you run around scrambling
- that making yourself miserable to make others happy is normal and you're good with that
What you are communicating by doing this is a lot more than just the words you're saying.
