Do You Want to Please Everyone?

Are you stuck trying to please everyone? Do you worry about what others think about you? Being the best you can and letting the rest go is powerful!
Being Mindful:
Do you want to please everyone?
“I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.”
~Bill Cosby
One of my biggest lessons learned in life is that not everyone will like you, no matter what you do! It is more important to be the best person you can be and not to worry too much about the people who still don’t like you or what you do.
That is not to say that you should not contemplate whether or not there is something you could do better. We can all get better. However, sometimes there is nothing you should change. Some people just don’t click with each other.
Letting go of perfectionism in relationships is powerful. Let’s live mindfully!
What do you think? How or when did you learn that you shouldn’t try to please everyone?
