What makes people happy? Shameless happiness comes from pleasing yourself -- not all of the time but most of the time. Doing what's best for you will help to make you happy; it is one of the keys to shameless happiness. Pleasing others can make you happy. But who's going to please you? Who's going to do what's best for you? If you're going to be happy, then it's up to you to please yourself.There are times when you will want to do what you can to please others. And that's a good thing. Pleasing others makes the world a better place for all of us.
But there are times when it's best to please yourself, to do what's right for you. If you're constantly striving to please others then it's only a matter of time before they learn to take advantage of you. Pretty soon you'll have no time for pleasing yourself.Pleasing yourself is open and honest. When you please yourself you are being true to yourself. It's when you are true to yourself that you are most happy.
