8) People pleasing
Some of the other behaviors on our list generally fall under the people-pleasing category.
It can tempt you to:
- Be as agreeable as possible, even when you think someone is wrong
- Apologize for things even when you have nothing to be sorry for
- Think that other people’s needs are more important than your own
- Stretch yourself too far by doing too much for other people
- Swallow the negative emotions you feel toward others, such as anger and frustration
The bottom line is as long as you’re always putting other people above yourself in every situation — you cannot live authentically.

A person must be selective with their time and energy because both elements of life are limited.
