Say no with love, A Wellbeing Coaches guide
Never feel like you have time for yourself?
It's time to hop on the NO TRAIN!
It feels horrid when you are made to feel like the bad bitch because you let someone down or turned them down.
But here's 2 truths:
1 - if they don't respect your boundary they don't deserve your help or respect
2 - by always helping you’re stopping a learning opportunity for them
It doesn’t feel great to be around people that disrespect you or are ungrateful and it’s amazing how this impacts your wellbeing. It creates stress and dis-ease, so why would you keep that in your life? Because you’re a good person. If stepping up with your boundaries means letting people go, let them go. You’ll create space for people who truly love and cherish you.
Just because they asked you, doesn’t make you the best person for the job! A lot of people get in the habit of asking the person that always says yes, rather than thinking about who would be the best to do it.
This one is an eye opener and a great way to start using boundaries to not overload yourself. The next time someone asks for your help with something, pause and ask yourself - am I the best person for this job? If not then say:
‘Sorry I can’t, but I know someone who’s great at doing that…’
If you can’t make a recommendation try:
‘I wish I could but with my current workload I’m not able to help right now.’
Boundaries can be challenging and this is why support and accountability can really help you move through this as you create the foundations in your life.
