We all know that “no” is a word we need to get better at saying. In fact, we need to start saying “no” more and “yes” a whole lot less. But why do we find it so hard? And why is it important that we get into the habit of saying “no” more frequently?
Like so many other women in business, I’ve felt the intense pressure to be perfect. I’ve tried to be everything to everyone all at once: the world’s best mother, manager, partner and friend. And while I value those roles greatly, my past people-pleasing and inability to say no led me to the brink of burnout.
It wasn’t until I stopped to question my ‘busyness’ and the toll it was taking on me did I realise the importance of shifting my mindset, changing my habits and learning to say “no”.
Today, I want to share with you the four key reasons why I believe saying “no” really matters, and the six values I live by to guide me through my life and work.
Enjoy!
