How to be a better person to myself and others
It made me
a better person 
"just started to be better "
How I did it: well...i first got better with myself. that was really a good first step. i think the problem i run into with others is that the things i think i am caretaking about - for them - are not the same considerations they think are important.
my context is very different than others.
many times it is bad. wrong. my life taught me to care about things that others think isn't important.
I think it is a mom thing. And a dutiful daughter thing.
I think I learned to be better to myself and stop being so self-sacrificing and martyred. No one likes a martyr. No one. Or a victim. Or a nurse or maid.
Be self sufficient. Be caring. But, allow others their day, their way, their time.
Lessons & tips: Be good to yourself and the rest will follow.
Repeat after me: put on your oxygen mask first. then care for others. because then you can.
Resources: Flylady taught me that tip. She has been wonderful over the years.
