Remember you are the only one to determine who you are and what you want. Don't stress over the fact that you must accept something you do not want to. Life is too short to live someone's else life or ideas.
When you give a “yes” when there ought to be a “no”, you give away a little piece of yourself. You relinquish your power, your control and disrespect your needs by making them less important than the needs of others, by making choices that don’t support YOU.
Every time you do this, you are making a choice to ignore what your heart, your mind, or your gut is telling you. Saying “yes” when you really want to say “no” is a waste of time. Your time! It’s important to use your time in the way that honors your priorities, helps you to reach your goals and serves your needs. You decide what’s worth your time and what’s not.
Remember every time you say “no” to others, you’re saying “yes” to yourself. :)
