does thinking and taking care about others is something wrong when u forget about yourself???
i started to realise that i must think about myself and give it priority more than anything else...cuz people don't appreciate.
what about you guys???

what i meant by caring about people is not concerning only help, it is about always listening to them n get affected by them which can affect your life...u just dont think about yourself, u think about what others say, n u care so much for anything they do...by the time u lose being yourself cuz u're too emotional for people, u care n think so much about them when they don't .

well, i tend to think more of others rather than my self, but when it comes to real tough decisions, i prioritize my self; my wants, needs and stuffs that i know i should do for myself. i do tend also to forget myself when i care about others, and i know that that's wrong, so i'm starting to build this routine for me that myself would go first in any circumstances outside thefamily arena [cause i gotta admit, family first before myself] and then when i'm finish fussing about myself, i'll try and take care of others. when you forsget about yourself in the process of thinking and taking care of others then that is definitely a no-no. c'mon, people tend to take you for granted even though you've given them everything and you've even put them first before you. and besides, what good will it do to you? if i go on taking care of others rather than myself, then won't it be my way of destructing myself for ignoring my needs, in a way, never appreciating my self? i guess you'll just have to practice self-preservation and self-worth as much as i do. =)

You have to think about what you just ask and it yes you do have to put yourself at the top of your list ,But make a bit of room on that list for others like your Family and Friends to.

Unfortunately, everyone needs to be selfless for it to work. Some people step on others, some just get stepped on. I like to think I put myself in equal first place with everyone else though.

Real happiness lies in forgetting oneself.... if you recall any of your happy moments in life, you would realize that you had actually forgotten yourself in the joy. Taking care of oneself is an extremely necessary task, but not the most rewarding one. Wisdom lies in finding an appropriate balance between the two.

Put yourself in the 1st place but take care that you are not too aloof when needed.

its yes and no. i've learned to take care of myself first because i need to be strong to be able to take care of both me and plenty of others. i take care of me so i can take care of others. i prefer to be in a position of giving, and that's only possible when i'm complete. but sometimes, i put other people's needs first, but that's because i find joy in giving and seeing others happy too.

We should respect, care, think about others as much as we care, think, respect ourselves. - In any order.
If you see a person next to you in a bus on your way to school, home, job, etc. do you care about that person? do you think about that person? - no. But you respect him, respect his doings and you don`t annoy him/her, you don`t run over his intimacy. As we live in a society we respect one and others but we don`t care. I can`t care for you, or the other people on the street or think about them as I don`t know them - but if I see a person needing help I do help that person.
We should never forget about ourselves and never cross the line of respect of other people.
I respect myself and people around me. I think about myself and the people I know. I care about myself, people I know and people in need.
