Hello Judy,

There's nothing wrong with being a "People Pleaser" as long as you learn to say, "NO" when necessary. 

As long as you take care of yourself as much as you take care of others.

As long as you aren't sacrificing yourself for others.

To me being a "People Pleaser" only means learning about other people.  All it takes is asking a few basic questions and paying attention.  Profiles here at ALP help too.  

I know you like gardening and birds, especially hummingbirds, so I try to please you by giving you garden pictures, flowers and hummingbirds whenever I can.  Its a small thing I do for you and it pleases me too.  As it happens I love the much the same things as you do!

Its about friendship and making a connection.  Its why you connect with some and not others.  That said you don't necessarily need a common bond to connect with others either as long as you are being nice, but at the same time still being you.  It all comes to being open and honest, to having integrity and being trust worthy. 

If someone was to have a liking for reptiles or insects, I would not go out of my way to please them.  I would need to find something else that would suit them and myself too.

Sincerely,

Terry

Hello Kathy,

Thank you for stopping by and posting your thoughts.  I've been a little behind with responding to everyone. 

Yes go after your dreams,
Walk by faith not by sight.

I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the topic.  I liked what you said about dreams, too. 

I believe a true dream needs faith ... sometimes a lot of it.  I daresay most true dreams take time to accomplish ... in some cases a very long time. 

If you don't keep yourself reminded of what your dream is and keep the faith that your dreams will come true, you are more likely to give up before they are realized and what a shame that would be. 

Too often when time has passed without achieving the dream, the head takes over from the heart and the dream is lost.

If its worth dreaming its worth achieving.

Sincerely,

Terry

 

Hello Diane,

Thank you for joining us!  What an awesome thought!  

I believe there are no coincidences to life. All of our failures are just dress rehearsals to the future successes we are destined to have."

I read Napolean Hill's Think and Grow Rich years ago.  It was always one of my favorites. 

My favorite quote is, "Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, he can achieve."

I may not have that worded quite right as I can't find my book to be sure, but it goes something like that.

Sincerely,

Terry

That was an awesome thought Judy!

"He said "As a man thinketh, so is he."  And, to that I say that a dream or thought or idea should be allowed to blossom.  We should follow them, and when there isn't a rainbow at the end, then it's just a stepping stone to the next big dream.  So, dream on, dream big, dream often.  I believe if we continue to dream with believe it becomes a reality!"

I'm with you ... Dream on ... Dream BIG ... Dream often!

Dare to Dream and above all have the courage to follow that Dream

Sincerely,

Terry

PS  That's a beautiful rainbow butterfly!
