I had a limiting belief that if I was nice "they" would be nice back. When "they" weren't nice to me I tried harder to be nicer. I took their unhappiness personally. After I experienced the greatest betrayal, I finally realized the limiting belief I identified with. I was then able to let the belief go and grow into a person who no longer sacrifices my happiness, my time or attention for another's comfort. I am kind to me and respect myself before anyone else. No matter how another feels about it. I understand if they have an issue with my NO it is their responsibility to deal with it not mine. I am still a kind person however I take the time now to understand what is in MY best interest. Amen!

I'm so sick of being 'nice' omg 😢 but feeling someone else's wrath towards you, when you speak up is also so painful.

If you’re reading this, please know you are the embodiment of love & perfection EXACTLY AS YOU ARE ❤️❤️❤️ You don’t have to overcompensate or people-please anymore… those days are over for you ❤️❤️❤️

Another way to say this is be nice when moved by your heart to feel kindness, not when you want approval because you dont love yourself enough. It doesnt mean remove being nice from your character.

I know exactly why this video fell into my lap. I’m done with pleasing people who do not appreciate me to ultimately only displease myself. Noted 📝 ✅

I’m following you since couple of months and you are the first channel that I sit with notebook and a pen in my hand! You’re the first ever channel, through which I make notes! Thank you! You’re helping!

When I've been authentic and vulnerable with people who were supposed to be family, they took that information and used it against me in a manipulative way. Crappy people like that is what makes people not want to be vulnerable. We get taken advantage of for being vulnerable cause they see it as a weakness.

Aaron, its amazing how you can look the way you want to, not the way someone else has approved. There is no time when you aren't beautiful. Much love now and always from your soul family.

I've been going through an intense spiritual awakening lately, and your videos made me realize I still have codependency wounds inside that need to be healed. It seems I was blinded to them for a while. Thanks so much!!

Being nice and people pleasing aren’t the same things.

3 things that ACTUALLY helped me manifest $1000 dollars into my life when I needed it the most
1. Creating a physical vision board with the RIGHT images
2. Reading the book Unleashing Your Dream Reality by Caleb Clarkson twice through
3. Applying the technique from the book called synesthetic visualisation everyday

Kick-ass classic from you. Yes Aaron, there's nobody, I mean nobody but myself who can be my shield.

Think about it, when we act out of fear of rejection or judgment, we're not being honest. We're altering our actions to get a specific outcome, whether it’s approval, acceptance, or avoiding conflict. That's manipulation, just in a softer form. Cmiiw
