Mastering The Art Of Saying No For Personal Growth

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

You have got to practice it. It is easy to say, but hard to do. Very hard to do. Even harder to keep.

But if you can do it, if you can focus on what makes you come alive, if you can make your life your priority, if you can say ‘no’ to what is making you unhappy, if you can say no to what is not in line with your dreams, your goals, your future,

if you can say no to toxic friends, to a toxic boss, manager, if you can say no to fear, to self-doubt, to self-destructive habits, you can achieve anything in your life.

The question is, ‘Do you know when to say ‘no’ to what is no longer helping you?

Protect Yourself From These People

What is your life about? Is it about you? Or is it about those around you? If you want to live a peaceful life, don’t make your life about you.

Instead, make your life about other people, those around you. They matter. They are your real life.

Yes, you have your own life. But your life is not complete without those who really love you.

But if those around you are not supporting you, if they are not healing your wound, if they are adding to your pain, if they are not there for you, if they are not happy, always negative, then you must let them go.

Don’t tolerate them. Do not tolerate any energy suckers. If something is not good for you, then you don’t need it in your life.

If something is not helping you, it is hurting you. If something is not for you, it is against you.

If you want to improve your life, you must first improve your environment. If you are in a toxic place, do not expect anything good to happen to you.

If you are with negative people, don’t expect them to make you happy. If you really value your happiness, your health, your career, you must stay away.

Why is that? Because you cannot get happiness from negative people.
