When you start focusing more on you, and less on others, thats when you can stop. You can only stop when you are mentally want to stop.

Always remember that your happiness is your responsibility just as other peoples happiness is their responsibility. You are not responsible for other peoples happiness.

The person you should focus on making happy is yourself. It's good to be a nice person but, you deserve happiness as much as anyone else.

You must be the kind of person that puts others before your own self, a people pleaser. And that's okay at times. But when it comes to the point where you neglect to take care of and help yourself, it is time for you to just stop. You may think that the more you give to others, the same they would give to you. But then you attract the kind of people into your life that are more than happy to take then walk off. You need to be able to say plain ''no'' to people. There is always a way in situations where you can respond to what people are asking of you whilst at the same time taking into consideration your own needs and happiness.

When you realize you're more important than "everyone else." After you learn to take care of yourself, when you learn yeah its okay to make this person feel good about themself, but do i even feel good about myself? When yoyurealize the obvious the unknown will come to you.

Wow, what an interesting question. I guess it will happen when you discover the reason why you try to make everyone happy. Best wishes.

When you decide it's time for YOU to be happy. You must realize that you need to be selfish sometimes and think about you. It's not always about everyone else and sometimes you need to do what makes you happy.

Whenever you feel like it! I'm sure you've heard that being selfless is a good thing & putting others in front of you is good.. But this isn't true in every situation. It's wonderful to do selfless acts of kindness for others from time to time but you always need to make sure YOUR happy first. You can't spread happiness if you don't have happiness to spread! Make sure you take some me time every now & again instead of trying to make others happy. It's ok to be focused on you & you alone sometimes. I hope I was able to help, keep your head up! :)

It feels like a circle because I help someone become a little bit happier ... and then someone to me
