This arrived in my mailbox this morning from Sparkpeople. I think its very appropriate for me right now considering my new business. I do want to please the ladies and keep them happy, however, I also need them doing things right and some of them may not be very happy with me at times. This article was a great reminder that you cannot please everyone all the time.

"The dangers of people pleasing

No matter how hard you try, no matter how many hours you spend pondering and planning, and regardless of how hard you try, you absolutely cannot please everyone. It is impossible. So do yourself a favor and stop now, before you drive yourself farther toward insanity. There are many drawbacks to being a people-pleaser. A big one is that you often put yourself in a position of subservience. Sometimes you even put yourself last, which helps no one. Remember that helping yourself and doing what you feel is important should be valued. Find worth in your own opinions and viewpoint, and don't let your desire to please others compel you to keep yourself in the background. Falling short of perfection only proves that you are a normal human being."
