I’ve noticed I often say yes to things I don’t really want to do, just to avoid disappointing people. Then I end up drained and frustrated with myself for not speaking up. Lately I’ve been trying to figure out how to set boundaries without feeling guilty or selfish, but it’s tough to unlearn old habits. Has anyone found practical ways to start respecting their own needs without pushing others away?

It's crucial to double-check all connections between the trailer and your towing vehicle. We at https://ortusautomovers.us/ verify that the hitch is secure and that the safety chains are properly attached. Test the trailer's brake and signal lights to confirm they are synchronized with your towing vehicle’s lights.
What I’ve seen is that once someone starts practicing small boundary-setting, people around them usually adapt faster than expected. At first it can feel like you’re letting everyone down, but over time it becomes clear that others often respect you more when you’re honest. It shifts the dynamic in a healthier way, and surprisingly, it can even make relationships stronger instead of weaker.
I used to struggle with that a lot too. What helped me was starting small — like saying no to little requests that didn’t matter much, so I could get used to the feeling. Eventually, I got more confident about standing my ground on bigger things. I came across a Liven app review where the author described working through similar patterns of always putting others first, and it felt so relatable. It reminded me that setting boundaries is really about valuing your own energy, not shutting people out.
