Choose yourself first.

What kind... called "choose yourself first."

It's not selfish.

But it's to "never leave yourself again."

1. Not in a place that hurts yourself repeatedly

Although still love

But you chose "not to endure."

2. Really listen to your own feelings.

Not forced.

Not drowning.

Not fooling yourself that's okay.

3. Set boundaries for yourself

What's not okay = say

What hurts the heart = refusing

4. Stop trying to be the way he wants.

And then back to "comfortable myself."

5. Choose peace rather than a sore bond.

Some... didn't disappear.

But you chose "No more in your life."

6. Don't run after people who don't choose you.

You don't have to try.

For anyone to appreciate.

Finally...

Choosing yourself

Not leaving anyone.

But it's to "not leave yourself."

# Choose # Heal yourself # Be yourself in the best version # Mom will not endure # Relationship

... Read moreประสบการณ์ในการเลือกตัวเองก่อนนั้นเป็นเรื่องที่สำคัญมากในชีวิตของคนเรา โดยเฉพาะเมื่อเราพยายามสร้างความสมดุลให้กับความสัมพันธ์และตัวเอง ได้ตระหนักว่า "เลือกตัวเอง" ไม่ใช่เรื่องของความเห็นแก่ตัว แต่คือการไม่ทิ้งใจตัวเองอีกต่อไป ในชีวิตจริง เราอาจเคยอยู่ในสถานการณ์ที่ต้องเจ็บซ้ำกับความสัมพันธ์ที่ไม่ดี แม้ใจยังรัก แต่สุดท้ายเราก็เรียนรู้ว่าการ "ไม่ทน" คือการให้คุณค่ากับตัวเองอย่างแท้จริง ฉันเคยเผชิญกับความรู้สึกที่ถูกละเลยโดยคนรอบข้าง ซึ่งทำให้ฉันตั้งขอบเขตให้ชัดเจนขึ้น ถ้าอะไรทำร้ายใจ ฉันจะเลือกพูดออกมาและไม่ยอมให้ความรู้สึกนั้นทำร้ายซ้ำอีก อีกสิ่งสำคัญคือการฟังความรู้สึกจริง ๆ ของตัวเองอย่างซื่อสัตย์ บางครั้งเราพยายามกลบเกลื่อนความรู้สึกที่แท้จริงเพื่อให้ดูแข็งแรง แต่การยอมรับความอ่อนแอของตัวเองเป็นอีกขั้นตอนหนึ่งของการฮีลใจ ซึ่งช่วยให้เราเป็น "ตัวเองที่สบายใจ" มากขึ้นโดยไม่ต้องพยายามเปลี่ยนเป็นเวอร์ชันที่คนอื่นต้องการ ไม่เพียงแต่ความสัมพันธ์ที่ล้มเหลวเท่านั้นที่ทำให้เริ่มเลือกตัวเอง บ่อยครั้งการเลือกความสงบก็สำคัญกว่าเพื่อป้องกันไม่ให้ความเจ็บปวดกลับมาอีก บางคนไม่ได้หายไปจากชีวิตเรา แต่มันคือการตั้งใจเลือกไม่ดึงความสัมพันธ์แบบนั้นเข้ามาใหม่ ซึ่งช่วยให้ใจเราได้รับการพักผ่อนและเติมเต็มพลัง สุดท้ายการไม่วิ่งตามคนที่ไม่เลือกเรา เป็นการยืนยันว่าเราเห็นคุณค่าในตัวเองและไม่จำเป็นต้องพยายามเพื่อให้ใครเห็นค่า เพราะการเลือกตัวเองคือการลงทุนในความสุขและความสงบที่แท้จริงของชีวิต นี่จึงเป็นบทเรียนสำคัญที่อยากแบ่งปันจากใจคนหนึ่งซึ่งได้เรียนรู้และเติบโตผ่านการเลือกตัวเองก่อนในทุก ๆ วัน

Choose Yourself First
Many people stay stuck because they’re attached to who they’ve always been. But growth requires change. Let go of what’s no longer working— habits, mindsets, and even certain people. And stop trying to save everyone else. You have to rescue yourself first.
