How to learn to say no by Becca_JaylasMom

"just SAY NO!"

How I did it: I was so worn out all the time from taking on more than I could do. Once i relized i didnt have to be Super Woman, and just politely declined all the things people were asking me to do... I finaly had time for myself!

Lessons & tips:

  • dont feel bad for saying sorry... but NO.
  • think of excuses ahead of time so it will be easy to recall them when asked to do something u cant
  • and.... JUST DO IT...say NO that is.

bizeewith4kidz is walking in the King's favor!

There certainly is a balance...

I commend you for doing what you can, when you can- that’s a true friend… But good for you to realize, that YOU matter too!

nnayram everything is a choice.

balance, yes please.

Saying no, ought to be free, not filled with value. Therefore there ought not be the need for the excuses. Sorry, yes when one would have liked to to do what was asked of them. I think the excuse is the attempt at justifing our own position, almost, a lie but to ones self. I too need to find the soul that will say a good clean honest loving NO.
