How to Say No Without Apologizing
Saying “no” and setting boundaries with others can be incredibly intimidating for some of us. Especially since many of us struggle with saying “no” to people, because we’re worried about being rude or dismissive of others.
And sometimes that can backfire. According to Harvard Business Review: “You can’t say yes to everyone and everything and do all of it well. When you take on too many or the wrong things, you waste time, energy, and money and distract yourself from what’s really important.”
You might find that you have to say “no” more often, especially around the holidays. And sometimes you might need to say “no” to make your self-care more of a priority.
