Sometimes, we exhaust ourselves trying to be available for everyone. We take responsibility for every problem, answer every request, and carry burdens that were never meant for us to bear alone.

In Exodus 18:13–27, Moses spent his entire day settling disputes among the Israelites until his father-in-law, Jethro, recognized that his approach was unsustainable. Jethro advised him to appoint capable, trustworthy leaders who could handle smaller matters while Moses focused on greater responsibilities.

This story teaches us an important lesson: being dependable doesn't mean being available to everyone all the time. You can care about people without sacrificing your well-being. You can be a good leader without doing everything yourself. And you can set boundaries without feeling guilty
