Success Topic of the Day: Learning to say No

How do you decide when to say no to something? Is it tough for you, or does it help you stay focused and get shit done?

I am a people pleaser and I have always struggled to advocate for myself. Learning to say No has been a really powerful way to take back my time. 

What about you?

Im also a people pleaser, and this topic makes me think about boundaries. the last years i have felt a lot of anger, often consequence of not being able to show up with solid boundaries (and healthy ones) with for example my daughter and the time that i devote to work vs being in my house taking care of house things. there is something that is not resolved there. and i see the incapacity that i have to say no: this is my time. i need this time. it is my time,’for me to decide what to do in it. often times it feels that not being able to establish that boundary is a consequence of not being able to properly say no to someone, and yes to yourself
