The Importance Of Saying 'No'

Sometimes you just need to say no to others. You cannot always live up to other people's expectations of you and must learn how to be assertive. If you answer yes to everything someone asks of you, it can make you feel like you being taken for granted. Individuals who say no value their time and know how to distance themselves from the situations and places they do not want to be around.

When you say no, you are securing your emotional well-being and taking care of yourself. Saying no is a courageous step and lets others know where you stand. At first, it may be difficult to speak up for what you want, but in time it will get easier.
