How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?
The answer is not enough, but it’s changing.
I used to worry about other people’s feelings, and I wound up doing a lot of stuff that I didn’t want to do. I found out later that they didn’t really care and felt expendable. They would have been ok if I was there or not, so I wasted a lot of time.
Now, I’ll make exceptions for some of my family, but I say no a lot. Sometimes, my goal is that I just don’t want to do what they want to. When I found out they didn’t really care, and I wasn’t hurting anyone’s feelings, I am just fine saying no to almost anything and everything.
My goal is to avoid crowds and people whenever possible now
