stop

More power to the willing.

Those of us that are willing to stop are the ones in control of our own lives.

You cannot do the things that you want to do if you continue to do things that are no longer important to you.

"To start anything new, you must stop doing something old. We say that "getting in means getting out." ", Brian Tracy

This is crucial.

Don't just stop using the things you have, sell them off.
Don't just grumble about being taken advantage of, put a stop to it.
Don't just accept your situation, change it.

I know from my own experience this is hard.

I have far too many things and need to get rid of a lot of them. This is a monumental challenge for me.

On the other hand, I have the opportunity to change my schedule completely around in the coming year and look forward to the chance.

Put yourself first and let go of the things that are holding you back. If you feel someone is taking advantage of you set a date when this must stop. And stick to it.
