To put yourself at the center of your life, you need to be selfish.
You need to put your needs first. Only when your cup is full will you have enough energy, resources, and desire to give to others without resentment.
Being selfish doesn’t mean you put yourself ABOVE other people. It simply means putting yourself first.
When your selfish desires come from your heart, from that deep knowing place within you, they will never cause anyone else pain. You don’t need to fear hurting others by being selfish. Only through being selfish can you add real value to others.
This spread will help you gain clarity on what your most selfish desires are – and what is stopping you from accepting and realizing them.
