You come across as a giving person, which is wonderful, but some people just take, take and take and often forget to ask whether you need help too.
This book is on my TBR:

I don't know if you have read it already, but you can decide after reading reviews whether you want to read it or not.
I am glad you are going to focus on yourself, your career and dream. On flights we get told to put our oxygen mask first before helping others. By making the choice to focus on yourself you can reach a point in your life of success, where you are in a position to be able to do more to help a lot of people.
Bold Part, thank you for sharing and it is so true. I never thought of it that way. Being the only girl in the family, people expect you as a superwoman and gives you so many responsibilities without thinking that that superwoman also do get tired just like superman. I will remember this quote of yours when i will be doubting my journing. Thank you for sharing the book as well. This is what I need, boundaries. Not just with the family but with everyone. Maybe somewhere I also need to change how i present myself. This year I felt Burnout. But making plans to release the stress. One of my therapist said you want to fix people and just know you can only help them. And when you see that you are not able to fix them, it puts you down. Just help people and let them find themselves and that's all you can do. I need to invest in ready boundaries, thank you for sharing
