One of my mentors sent this message out this week:
Decide what kind of life you really want, … then say No to everything that isn’t that …
I love it, and it resonates so much with me, as a classic people-pleaser I find saying No isn’t easy.
But this is often the cause of overwhelm and feeling frazzled and ultimately anxious and stressed.
If you find you are often feeling like this, and you identify this as being the result of saying Yes to everyone, then its time to take a step back, think about the effect this is having on your life, and start to identify what you want, and what you need to do to achieve it, even if it does mean starting to say No.
