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?

My wife and I are the same way, looking out for others and willing to lend a helping hand. Recently had a friend start to take advantage of us, asking for money, asking to borrow our cars because hers was unreliable. We tried to think of excuses, and finally we just said we need to say no. It’s felt like a weight was lifted from our shoulders and she actually got herself a new car and told us she has a plan to be paying us back over the next 3 months. So apparently she needed to hear that word also.

The biggest things in life are your friends and family 🤙🏻

Ya being on the same page as your partner is absolutely crucial!

Isn’t is cool how that works out sometimes? 

Gotta be helpful to have a partner who’s on the same page with stuff like this!
