The pitfalls of being a people pleaser
How to not please anyone - try to please everyone. Or rather, anyone except Krishna. Who really loves us? Krishna. Why? Because He actually knows us. Everyone else sees us as a husband, a father, a son, but not as who we really are. Krishna knows us in truth. It is a very hard life when we try to please people. When they are dissatisfied they will label us in so many ways. But when we devote our time and energy to pleasing Krishna, we make real progress. Nobody else knows our intentions, or the effort we put in . It all goes unnoticed and unappreciated. People have so many expectations of what we should do in our different roles. And usually they want the maximum return they can get. his goes for family, work. Only when Krishna is in the centre do we know how to deal with people properly. When someone is a devotee of Krishna then we deal with them in the correct way - with great respect, humility etc.
