Twisted Into a Pretzel

People-pleasing is not only exhausting, but not very pleasing to others. Oh yes, we can certainly appear pleasing on the outside, but all of this pleasing others turns us into a pretzel, and we actually can become irritating. Furthermore, most people want us to be genuine, authentic. We want to know what others truly prefer, not just a pleasing word or attitude. So, consider being genuine with others. Share what you think and want. Be an individual and notice how others take an interest in you.
