Do you have a hard time saying “no” when someone asks you to do something for them? That’s a very common way to behave, especially for those in jobs where helping others is what they do.

If you’re like I used to be, often asked to chair a committee or take on a part of someone else’s job, maybe you’re also like I was – often stressed, harried and sick.

When you say “yes” to everyone else, you’re saying “no” to your own personal needs, and it doesn’t take long before your body starts saying “no” to you, too. Bodies need rest. Bodies need space. Bodies need the brain to take a break and quit circulating all those harmful stress hormones all the time.

“No” is a complete sentence – you don’t need to have a reason to say no, and you don’t owe anyone any kind of explanation. Practice saying “no” and then pressing your lips together, role-play saying “no” with your friend who’s always telling you that you do too much for others.

Learn to say “no” to the things you really don’t want to do because then you’re saying “yes” to you and your balanced life.
