In a world where we are all struggling to find time for ourselves, saying no to the things you don’t want to do means that you are freeing up time for the things you do want to do, and saying yes to your amazing self 🥰. Saying no is a kindness to yourself that filters out to other people. When you are true to your own desires, you have the capacity to give from a place of love, not resentment or fear.
1. You will be authentic - Being honest about what you want to do will allow you to be true to yourself, and others will see you as genuine and authentic.
2. Become more productive - Making decisions based on what is important to you will enable you to work within your priorities rather than someone else's. You are responsible for your own time!
3. Maintain good boundaries - Being self-disciplined about saying no takes away the stress of taking on something you will later regret. Avoid becoming overwhelmed and burnt out by taking on too much.
4. Become more confident - By not worrying about what others may think of you, and letting go of the need to please, you will develop confidence. Most people respect someone being honest and won't see this as a bad thing.
5. Frees you up to say yes! - Being in control of your own time frees you up to do the important stuff, and confidently make decisions based on your own priorities. This is empowering and will allow you to say yes to new possibilities.
