Have you had that time in your life, when you always wanted to please everyone?
Or probably you are experiencing that presently?
I got news for you.

For me I have actually experienced it. I wanted everyone to smile and be happy with me but trust me it didn't go that way. I displeased myself a lot in other to please others even at my detriment. But thank God I learnt two principles that helped me and I will be sharing those principles.

1. Set out a to do list every day
Set a to-do list, attach time and the duration of each task. It will caution you and bring you closer to your dreams. Remember success is not a destination, success is everyday. This helped me structure my time, weigh my options and set boundaries.

2. Personal evaluation
Always carry out  personal evaluation daily. Check your list the things you were able to achieve and those that were not achieved and try to pinpoint the reasons why.

In conclusion, do not overstock your schedule for the day. Set your priorities right and remember that it's not all about being busy but being busy doing something of value. You saying NO to some offers doesn't make you mean, it only shows you are disciplined and principled .
