They didn’t love you #motivation

About this video

Shelton addresses people who have been taken advantage of by others they’ve helped. He argues that when good-hearted people finally set boundaries or say no to those who’ve been using them, they’re often vilified and cast as the villain despite all they’ve done. Shelton encourages viewers not to feel guilty for choosing themselves and recognizes that truly grateful people don’t disappear when the favors stop.

Key takeaways

• Shelton teaches that people who only value you for what you provide will turn against you the moment you set boundaries
• Moving from self-neglect to self-respect may make you appear as the ‘bad guy’ to those who were exploiting your kindness
• Good-hearted people should not let others’ false sense of entitlement harden their hearts or make them feel guilty for prioritizing themselves
