Why You Need To Put Yourself First | Mel Robbins

—

If you’re letting the fear of judgements and opinions from your friends, colleagues, or family stop you from going after what you truly want, I have news for you. While you’re busy being worried about what everyone is thinking about what you're doing with your life, you’re silencing yourself.

It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to express your needs and go for what YOU want. It won’t be easy to chart your own path and it will take some practice, but when you finally decide to live your life for YOU, everything else will fall into place.

I’ve just realised this week that I’ve wasted over 30 years worrying about everyone else apart from me and I’ve missed out on a lot of life. I need this video right now. Thanks Mel x

“Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.” Do you agree?

I hear you Mel. I am done taking care of everyone. I was a single mom for 17 years and now my daughter chooses to live with her father that has never been there for her. I am done. A toxic family. I am going to just leave, disappear and live my life for me now

I may not know you personally, but I believe in you my friend! 🙏

As I embark on a new life, single at 58, I realize how much I gave up of me while taking care of everyone else. I have always said I was born a mother- my concerns were always for others. Now with no editing due to a spouse, I am going to find out how awesome I am. Thanks Mel.

I think the problem is often family members, parents or even adult children that expect or sometimes demand that you are there for them 24/7.

My opinion is what matters, not what anybody thinks am going to make my decisions for me and live my life for me!

[falakshah]

That's so true and simply logical...but we get stuck in so many different things and get away with...Wel said Mel!

[Lasuperzambi]

It's so true. I am experimenting with this. I am making a revolution in my life, obviously starting from myself, and I can see that the people around me that know me already are changing their behavior toward me. They respect me more, they ask me for advice, they are better in general. I am amazed and delighted because I think that this means that I have taken the right path.

Excellent share, Mel. Honouring our needs, learning to say No, setting boundaries, and taking care of ourselves first will do wonders for our self-esteem and self-worth. It's not easy at first, but hang in there, eventually it will come naturally. Btw, happy father's day to all those men that are present and choose to show up every single day for your children! 💜

[TheJlyn]

Its always easier said than done. Especially as a parent.

Your channel is like a virtual retreat. Thank you for providing a peaceful escape in the online space! 🌿

[MihaelaClaudiaPuscas]

This was so amazing that I had chills! So true! So realistic, so necessary for us to know this! And put ourselves first! I did that and was truly hard and painful, but now it's getting better! And was worth it!

[jackibresee]

You are like a friend who I wish was part of my personal mini circle. Which is more like a dot since the events of the past couple years. Lonelier than ever and so much fear. I'm grateful to at least be able to turn to your videos for advice and connect with your empathy and deep understanding of the human condition. You give me hope. And that is rare these days. So thank you. Thank you. Thank youuu! If you ever want to take a road trip for coffee I'm not far from Vermont. Lol

[bosssuperfly]

This is kind of coincidence I'm going through a phase right now I really need to take care of myself. I do so much for everybody but not for me I got to continue doing something... Thank you so much I need restart my journey

[sandramilfort]

Thank God for Mel. It’s like divine intervention every time. 🙏🏾🙌🏾😘

[dianep]
