If you’ve been following along, you’ll know that boundaries are not selfish, but sacred. Journal for 5 minutes about a significant moment in your life when you said “yes” when you really wanted to say “no.”
Think about why you said “yes.”
Who benefited from your “yes.”
Whose feelings/wants/needs were, perhaps, protected by your “yes.”
How were YOU impacted by your “yes” in that moment?
Would you do things differently today by saying “no”
Why or why not?
Let this be a courageous act of self-reflection, not punishment for the past, but a way to prepare for the future.
