I resonate with your weakness, which is part of a spectrum where too far in either direction can be problematic. Too cynical about people and unwilling to help is bad, but too selfless and always giving can leave you nothing for yourself.

That said, I’d rather err on the side of too kind. All of the best things that have happened to me have come as a result of giving to others. So often the more you give the more you get.

Yes I follow that philosophy of being a giver than a taker. Focusing on giving value than being a person who constantly takes without giving.
