Say yes to what matters by saying no to what doesn't
If you're like most people, saying no probably makes you feel uncomfortable.
Maybe you're a people pleaser, and saying no makes you feel like you're rejecting someone.
Or maybe you're not naturally assertive and you feel too embarrassed to say no.
You may even just want to avoid any sort of conflict, and saying yes seems to be the easy way to go.
The thing is, if you always say yes to things you don't want to do, just because it makes you feel uncomfortable to say no, you're unwittingly saying no to yourself and your needs.
Eventually, you will feel overwhelmed by all the things you said yes to, but didn't really want to do.
This can lead to unnecessary stress and anxiety, ruined relationships, a lack of identity, and burnout.
When you say yes to taking on that new project, and end up dropping the ball on your other tasks.
When you half-heartedly agree to that sketchy investment scheme your friend is offering you, and lose thousands of your hard-earned money.
When you once again go along with your partner's movie choice, even if you don't really like it, and you ultimately forget your film preferences.
All these situations could have been avoided if you had just said no.
But that's easier said than done, especially since there are emotions and social expectations involved in all our interactions.
