Its quarter past 12 when I started this article. In spite of writing
an article on prioritizing the right things, I was hardly following it.
Be it at any point of life which we are in, we tend to say YES
in order to not make other person feel bad. It is our natural tendency to
accept things given by others, after all we feel people seldom give us anything,
so our mind is quite stuck with the feeling to grab anything that’s given.
Be it as small as going out with them for a quick evening coffee
and snacks or as big as staying up at night’s for days together to help them
with their emotional or intellectual imbalance that’s happening in their life,
we make our best not to say NO.
I believe we are brought up in our lives with a mindset
instructing us that rejecting something or someone is kind of offending. With this
mindset, in spite of knowing that certain things are negative to us, we tend to
accept it by saying YES.
The more time we take to say NO to wrong things or things that drain
us; we are the ones, who would suffer,
I feel it is much more needed for us to learn to reject and say
no to lots of things in our life , the quicker we learn to say no to things
that bring us sorrow, the better it is to our life.
At times, “No becomes the right Yes”
After all, you too have got a life of your own that is to filled
with positivity and happiness,
Why waste it by filling it out with other’s
sorrows and miseries?
True... Assertive training needs to be inculcated from the beginning to avoid personal burden! Sometimes it's ok to say No!
ReplyDeleteAs you rightly said, it should be taught to people that its okay to say NO!
