Always prioritize yourself

Never get involved in situations where you act as a people pleaser, seek attention, understand others' problems without feeling understood yourself, give too much without leaving any for yourself, invalidate your feelings, or experience being ignored and unappreciated.

Always prioritize yourself, no matter what happens.

Choose yourself first, feed what you need before tending to others.

This is not selfish; it's about
self-awareness and self-care.

Not all people have the same heart as you, not all people you trust are trustworthy, not all people you give attention to are honest and real, not all people in your life are there for you when you need them, not all people will stay and choose you in your challenging and worst moments, and not all people have the same perspective as you.

Stay with yourself, don't give too much, and always give more to yourself.

This is worthwhile and self-awareness, not selfishness.
