Are you one of those goody-goody persons who are now facing the following problems?
You have become a doormat or a bellboy to others.
You are unable and unwilling to say no.
People take you for granted.You are endlessly running errands for others.
Everyone’s urgencies are your emergencies.
All your time, money, and effort is spent on helping others.
You have become a cart horse by taking on everyone’s load.
You have to take permission from your husband, wife, or other family members to buy the things you love with your own money, or eat the dishes you like, wear the clothes you like, sleep an extra hour, and so on.
If you say yes to one or more of the above statements, then you are not alone. Millions of people worldwide, especially breadwinners, are in the same boat unable and unwilling to escape. But it's high time that you stop living for others and start living for yourself without any guilt or regret. This amazing book will show you how to do that.
