Hello to all hive users 🤗❤️🙏
Hope you all are healthy and doing great in your life🙂
Since childhood, you've likely heard from your elders that you should always help and support others. There's nothing wrong with helping others and doing the best we can for them. However, sometimes, in our pursuit of doing good for others, we fail to think for ourselves, and this can lead to many problems. Therefore, while we should help others, the most important thing is to think for ourselves. There are many scenarios in our lives that require us to think about others instead of ourselves. However, it's not necessary to always think about others, as you often become selfish and think about yourself. Thinking about yourself isn't a bad thing; it's a form of self-love.

I was like this since childhood, because I was taught to help others and be considerate. As I gradually learned about the world and realized that some people use you only for their own benefit and don't care about you after that, I was initially surprised, but then I decided it was right to change. Friends, there's nothing wrong with changing yourself, because if you're changing for the right reason, it's beneficial, and you shouldn't be bothered by anyone's negative comments. We had a group of friends during college. There were about seven of us who lived in a group and shared a good bond. Everyone got along well and knew a lot about each other. The six of us were fine, but there was one boy who was quite smart. Smart meant he was adept at getting things done from others. He didn't do much with us, but we could see his activities, and judging by this, we thought he was quite clever. When we reached third year, he was always on time. Speaking of the image of the selfish boy, he had also started taking advantage of us. He would call us on some pretext, lie, and make excuses. Then, when we got there, we'd find out he'd actually called us for his own work. At first, I thought, "Let's just let it go," but when it started happening more often, I decided, "I won't let him take advantage of me." I say "unfair advantage" because if you lie to someone to get your work done, it's a kind of wrong, because you're just luring them in, like, "If you do this, you'll benefit from it, but the only person who benefits from it." This may seem a little strange, but many people ignore it. But I don't ignore it because I believe this shouldn't happen between friends. If you have a need for something, go directly to your friend and say, "Friend, I need your help with this task." It shouldn't be that you lie and ask them to do your work first.
Something similar happened once. He had to take an exam somewhere a little out of town. He didn't say, "Come with me to the exam, I'll be there with you." Instead, he said, "Let's do something, let's go for a walk. I have some work nearby, so we'll finish that and then go for a walk." He initially suspected something was amiss, but when two other friends agreed to go with him, I said, "Okay, let's go." Once there, we found out we were just supposed to sit there because the boy had an exam. At first, I was quite angry, but I decided to deal with it calmly. I didn't say anything at the time, but later I realized that it was better to stay away from this person, even if it meant staying away from my other friends. "That's okay," he said. "I won't be fooled by this person anymore." Even after the day he often talked to her like let's go out to have dinner somewhere or when he was comfortable he would ask her to work only on time or when he had some work to do. I found this thing a bit strange and I refused for any activity and said that I don't have time because it seemed like a waste of time to me and the time that I was wasting for her work, I could have used it for some of my own work. Initially I found this act a bit strange but I thought that it is very important to be selfish only then some people cannot take advantage of you.
