When was the last time you said “no” to someone you knew? I bet you really have to think about that. I know I did. In the past week, I’ve said “no” to exactly two people–that’s out of all the requests from my friends, family, business partner, agent, editors, and clients. On the other hand, this week I’ve said “yes” over 50 times to those same people. “Yes” to work requests, “yes” to social invites, “yes” to requests for help from family and friends. I say “yes” to everything because I don’t want to come across as mean, lazy, boring, or uncaring, but it’s exhausting. It leaves me very little time to relax or accomplish personal goals that are important to me.
