The Power of Saying "No"
Like a lot of women out there, I had problems saying NO.
I grew up thinking that I need to accommodate people's needs to be able to live a rich, fulfilling life.
That I need to be selfless and kind.
As a grown up, I realized that to be able to live a satisfying existence, I need to prioritize myself before I can give to others.
They said that sometimes when you tell other people "No", you are actually saying "YES" to yourself.
And there is nothing wrong with that.
Do not believe otherwise.
