Are You A ‘People Pleaser’?

Yes and No. Don't we admire those who go their own path with confidence and vigour? I do. Isn't beauty an asset to be measured not only by the physical but also the intellectual and emotional attributes?  I can often hear myself thinking, yes, yes, yes when I read tales of women who have defied the odds, tradition and anything else that stood in their way. Yet, "people pleasing" can also be a very positive element in our lives. It's a balance between doing our own thing and not living by other's opinions and self-reinforcement of us.
