Don't make yourself too accessible
So its time to stop being so accessible! It’s time to find that perfect balance of being a warm, generous person while taking care of yourself and prioritizing your time.
And when you’re dealing with a limited quantity of anything, you need to plan how you’re going to use that thing to its maximum potential. In other words, it’s time to evaluate your priorities.

Know that you teach people how to treat you. Most people will see how you value yourself and treat you in kind.
