I served their needs first, picked up any unmet task \u2014 even those that weren\u2019t outspoken. I was a Yes-sayer par excellence, pleasing others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Doing so, I lost myself along the way. And with that I lost my time \u2014 and with time my energy, focus and (especially unfortunate) joy in what I actually wanted to do. At its peak, this helped lead into a burnout.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only 6 years ago, I learned to face and by that detect the People-Pleaser within me.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I discovered how this unhealthy mindset and habit (I call her &#8222;Mrs. Too Nice&#8220;) is prompted by others \u2014 and which of my beliefs try trick me into thinking &#8222;that the People-Pleaser is good for me&#8220;:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My belief that &#8222;we have to be in harmony, being good with each other at any time&#8220; was one of the strongest and most self-sabotaging among them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I also discovered that only some time after having done something for others, I turned angry or frustrated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The usual pattern was: I did something for someone. The person\/others took it for granted, as this is &#8222;what Eva does anyhow.&#8220; And as no &#8222;Thank you!&#8220;, no positive recognition came in return, my anger or frustration started to bottle up inside me.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Back then, my personal issue (as with many founders, managers, teams and families today) was: I haven&#8217;t had the positive skills to resolve this unhealthy conflict.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, I do. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">~ I show empathy and kindness in times of e.g. anger to myself first. This helps me to set boundaries, stop this angry mind-chatter, the tension in my body and other unhealthy responses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">~ I get truly curious and explore &#8222;what&#8217;s this situation all about&#8220;, what&#8217;s truly making me angry, unbalanced or sad.
