Your energy is an asset.

 

1. Not all loyalty is real.
   Some people are loyal to your access, not your vision. As soon as the benefits stop, so does their support.

2. Takers rarely show up obvious.
   They look helpful. Friendly. Harmless. That’s the trap. They are slowly replacing your growth with their needs.

3. Every yes you give them is a no to yourself.
   Time, energy, favors, calls, intros. It all adds up. And none of it builds your business.

4. You are not selfish for protecting your time.
   You are strategic. Your energy is an asset. You don’t owe it to everyone who shows up asking for a piece of it.
