Say No.

Some people, like me, find it extremely hard to say no to people. It feels innately wrong to say no to people's requests and wants. It is a work in progress for me and I am definitely getting there but every time I get asked to do a favour I am not particularly comfortable doing, every time I get asked to do something because they are lazy to do it, I used to panic a lot and struggle to say no. It has been getting a lot easier, ever since I realized that it is okay and that it is very much valid of me to say no because I have my own priorities. The right people will understand too, they won't black mail or coerce you into getting their way, they will understand and respect the fact that you can't do whatever it is they'd like you to do. It is not even a big deal for most people, it's just the few of us who overthink things and try to put others' feelings before ours and make a mountain out of a molehill who struggle to say no. So, practice it, if you intend to get better at it. Practice saying no, practice being honest, practice being brave. 

Love, peace.
An Earthian.
