Saying NO is hard for people. You get so caught up worrying about hurting someone’s feelings or anticipating their reactions, that you compromise yourself over and over again.How many times have you gone along with something that was not a YES for you just to keep the peace or keep a friend or family member happy?News flash! You’re not really keeping the peace (and the peace I’m referring to is your own) and I’d also say you’re also being a dishonest friend and/or family member. Saying an honest no (or yes) ultimately means being TRUE TO YOU without worrying about what the other person may think or how they might respond. It’s about saying what’s true for you at any given moment.Be sure to check out the freebies on my website, including a downloadable copy of the blog post which inspired today's episode!Today's episode is an encore episode and originally aired in November 2020.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fall-in-love-with-yourself-toolkit/donations

Have you ever considered how your life could change if you stopped taking things personally?Have ever even considered not taking things personally?If you've read Don Miguel Ruiz’s classic book, “The Four Agreements. perhaps you remember this as the second agreement, if not let me remind you with this excerpt:"Whatever happens around you, don’t take it personally. Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves. All people live in their own dream, in their own minds; they are in a completely different world from the one we live in. When we take something personally, we make the assumption that they know what is in our world, and we try to impose our world on their world."When you stop taking things personally, you can literally stop wars (the ones that happen in your mind and in your life when you see everything as personal to you!) It's a pretty amazing shift!Tune in to find out more!Today's episode is an encore episode and originally aired in February 2021.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fall-in-love-with-yourself-toolkit/donations
