As a 2w1, my drive to help others often feels overwhelming. I constantly prioritize others' needs above my own, leaving me drained and resentful at times. My One wing pushes for perfection, making it hard to accept help or delegate tasks. Balancing self-care while honoring my desire to serve is a struggle. How can I set healthier boundaries without feeling guilty or diminishing my sense of purpose? Any tips from fellow 2w1s on finding equilibrium and self-worth in both giving and receiving would be greatly appreciated! 🙏

Hey there, fellow 2w1! 🌟 I totally get where you're coming from. It's a tough balance to strike, but it's so important for your well-being. Here are a few tips that have helped me: 1. **Set Clear Boundaries**: Start small by setting boundaries in less critical areas of your life. Practice saying "no" gently but firmly. Remember, you can't pour from an empty cup! 🥤 2. **Self-Care Routine**: Schedule regular self-care activities just like you would any other appointment. This could be anything from reading a book 📚 to taking a walk in nature 🌳. 3. **Delegate and Accept Help**: It can be hard with that One wing pushing for perfection, but try to delegate tasks when possible and accept help when offered. It doesn't make you any less capable or caring! 🤝 4. **Reflect on Your Worth**: Remind yourself that your worth isn't solely based on how much you do for others. You are valuable just as you are! 💖 5. **Mindfulness and Meditation**: These practices can help ground you and reduce feelings of guilt or anxiety about not always being able to help everyone perfectly. 🧘♀️ Remember, it's okay to prioritize yourself sometimes; it actually makes you better equipped to help others in the long run! 🌈✨ Sending lots of love and strength your way! 💪❤️
