Repeat after me, “I am not for everyone.” This is the key takeaway from Dr. Aziz Gazipura’s book Not Nice.

Whenever I find myself in a difficult situation, which historically would have caused me to adopt people-pleasing habits, I remind myself of this.

I don’t like everyone, so it is ok and normal for others not to like me. After all, I am not for everyone.
