How to Stop Being a People Pleaser

Are you a People Pleaser? Do you always find yourself saying YES? Would you like the confidence to hold better personal boundaries?

Then my book is for you!

So, you said no, but you paid the price for it. The nagging voice that says, "You should have said yes," coaxes you to treat your brother with kindness and respect. Again, you may ignore the voice. Indeed, that's what this book is about – managing your behaviors and overcoming pleasing others.

So why do you do it? Could it be that you really don't know how to stop? You've been doing it since you were a kid. I'm sure you remember the sadness, loneliness and anger you felt when you were growing up. Perhaps your parents gradually became emotionally absent. Maybe the situation changed after the divorce or death of a sibling or spouse.

You've probably spent your whole life catering to the needs of others and secretly feeling resentful.

You may have been involved in a codependent relationship and knew that something wasn't quite right, but you weren't sure exactly what it was. Previously, you may or may not have realized the depth of your childhood trauma. Now you do know.

Now you can decide to change.

Are you willing to do inner work like boosting your self-esteem, saying no and enjoying your own company?

It won't be easy, but you can do it.

Apply cognitive behavioral therapy techniques. Pray or meditate. Perhaps most importantly, express yourself. Raise your voice or pick up a crayon. Grab a pen or plant a flower. Let your thoughts be known.

Your time is valuable.

So, you need to set boundaries and tell people what you want and need. While you may value other people's opinions, you're perfectly capable of making decisions on your own.

Assert yourself in a relationship and within a group. Ask for feedback so you can grow personally and professionally. Whatever choices you make for yourself, don't feel guilty and never apologize for the beautiful, self-assured person you've become.

My book will teach you to do exactly that. If you're a chronic people pleaser, then you need this book!
