Living life trying to please everyone is not only a daunting task, but is nearly impossible to do and remain healthy, (emotionally and/or physically), simultaneously. Of course, we want to make other people happy but it cannot be at our own expense.
Attempting to live your life this way is how one becomes, (or remains), what is commonly know as "People Pleaser" and is not the way to be your best self , live and enjoy to the fullest. You cannot please everyone, but we must try to be pleased with ourselves. We must learn and continue to understand where 'they' and 'we' begin.
Saying 'No' or 'Not now', once in a while especially when necessary is healthy. 'No' is a part of teaching, learning and practicing healthy boundaries.
We cannot be everything to everyone nor we can do everything, especially at the same time. What can be and do is our best.
The point isn't hard to grasp: trying to please everyone is impossible, and will result in failure to please anyone (especially yourself), I blog, I write for an audience, but I have the experience of getting glowing praise and damning criticism. People don't always agree.
If you're trying to live up to all the expectations that crowd on you, you'll end up feeling miserable. Inevitably I have to manage and meet all the competing demands.
