What is not fine is being inconsiderate, uncommunicative towards those expecting an answer (when it takes five seconds), or just being rude for no reason.

As long as your definition of selfish doesn’t include behaviors falling into the latter category then you’re fine, and should continue moving forward as-is.

Yes! And to leaving the guilt behind! Have a lovely day, Alyssa!

Right!? I’m glad my eyes have finally been open to this new (and needed) world of self-care! Thank you for reading, Martina!

Yes! Because how much help could you really be if you, yourself, weren’t in a healthy mindset, ya know?! I appreciate your comment!

Exactly! We’ve got to rewire our brains when it comes to the definition of selfish. Thanks so much for your comment, Charmaine!

I’m notorious for overloading my to-do list and focusing on others before taking care of myself. Here’s to learning to be more selfish! xo

I think being self-centered and being selfish are two totally different things! Me-time, treating yourself and putting yourself on top of your priority list are very healthy and necessary things to do! I honestly feel for those who don’t get that (yet)!

Sometimes, while we are caring for others, we forget ourselves. But since our needs are as worthy as the needs of others, we should always remember to take care of this body and mind, too.

Selfishness is definitely important sometimes; you absolutely need to care for yourself if you want to care for others to the fullest!

But it’s actually good to have a balance of being selfless and selfish!
