One last thing. Don’t expect the world to clap for you when you start putting yourself first. In fact, expect them to be uncomfortable.

But remember this: the only people who get upset when you set boundaries are the ones who were benefiting from you having none. So, dare to be the 'bad guy' in someone else’s story if it means being the hero in your own. At the end of the day, you are the only person you have to live with forever. Make sure you’re in good company.
