Sorry Not Sorry!  - The Number One Reason to Stop Apologizing,  Anxiety Relief!
Do you find yourself apologising all the time? Saying sorry when you don't really need to apologise and haven't done anything wrong.
Women tend to apologise a lot more than men. It is often a sign of low self esteem and lack of confidence but can also be habit or customary.
Amy Schumer did a comedy sketch about female thought leaders who spent so much time apologising at a conference that they didn't have time to share their ideas. Psychotherapist Beverly Engel says in her book The Power of an Apology, “over-apologizing isn’t so different from over-complimenting: You may think you’re displaying yourself as a nice and caring person, but you’re actually sending the message that you lack confidence and are ineffectual.”
We are thinking that the origins of the word sorry come from the old English Sorrow, pained or distressed so when you over use the apology it can lead to you feeling more anxious, pained and distressed on some level.
Stop saying sorry when it's not needed and notice how that empowers you into feeling more confident. We are going to take note of all the times we sorry and going to stop doing it as much! Let us know if you tend to apologise all the time and ultimately how it makes you feel to stop doing so!
