Yeah. First.

Not all the time, but from time to time, I want my needs, wants, and desires to be put first, with a spirit of excitement and kindness.

Claiming this desire can still feel uncomfortable at times for me. This item on my list is similar to #10 (willing to make it all about me), and as I wrote then, I’ve shifted some deep energy that places a priority on sacrifice, so extremely that it becomes martyrdom. Playing the martyr is the fastest path of feeling powerless. And, it's the fastest way to resent the people in your life that you love.

I’ll say it again: “Don't confuse a focus on SELF as being SELFISH and don't fall into the scarcity mindset that says, ‘if I feel awesome, someone else must feel less than awesome.’ That's false and limiting and minimizing.”
