A nice book to read

I love how the book relates or matches well with the title.The author did an amazing job in politely pointing out the areas where everyone seems to be a victim or guilty in setting out boundaries in our lives. Knowing myself explanations by the author resonated with me and I felt like the book was written all about me.It is full of learnings.

A definite confidence builder

I thought that I was a “don’t take crap from anyone” person but after listening to the audiobook, I understand that I still do things for other’s attention. Also, there is the right and wrong attitude to have to not try to please everyone. The author does a great job showing ways to humble yourself. Definitely a great listen.

Very eye opening!

Pleasing Everyone Never Works

I have 28 years of experience working in military organizations. While serving my country, I would work to please my superiors and was focused on the one who was responsible for writing my performance evaluation. After leaving that structured lifestyle, I struggled to work in an organization full of individuals doing their work differently. When placed in a leadership role of such individuals, it became difficult to try and please everyone. I had to learn how to say “no” without feeling guilty. I had to learn to recognize the behaviors and practice routines to help me set boundaries to focus on the job and the mission. I found this book to be right on task, and listening to this helped me to rebuild my confidence as a leader in the workplace. I found the strategies to be useful.
