How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?

Funny story. I didn’t often say no. Lately, I’ve been trying to more. I’m a recovering “people pleaser” and we don’t often know HOW to say no…at least not initially. Because of that, I had rarely put my own goals first. And yes, I have paid the price for that over the years. People pleasers, like I once was, usually responded with “yes” for fear of not wanting to live with the guilt of not making everyone else happy.

BUT…things have been changing for the better and now I see my goals as much more important to my vision and direction than I used to.

So, I am working on saying “no” much more often.
Promise.
