Prioritize your mental wellbeing over pleasing others from "summary" of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck by Sarah Knight

In a society that values people-pleasing and external validation above all else, it can be difficult to prioritize your own mental wellbeing over the opinions and expectations of others. However, by constantly seeking to please those around you, you are neglecting your own needs and desires, leading to feelings of resentment, anxiety, and unhappiness. When you prioritize your mental wellbeing, you are taking control of your own happiness and emotional health. This means setting boundaries, saying no to things that do not serve you, and prioritizing self-care activities that nourish your mind, body, and soul. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but learning to say no and put yourself first is a necessary step towards living a more fulfilling and authentic life. It is important to remember that you cannot control how others perceive you or what they think of your choices. By focusing on your own mental wellbeing, you are taking ownership of your life and making decisions that align with your values and goals. This may mean disappointing or upsetting some people, but ultimately, your happiness and mental health should always come first. In the end, prioritizing your mental wellbeing over pleasing others is a radical act of self-love and self-respect. It requires courage, strength, and a willingness to go against the status quo. But by doing so, you are reclaiming your power and living life on your own terms. So, the next time you feel pressured to prioritize others over yourself, remember that your mental wellbeing is worth fighting for.
