The Struggle is Real:
Whether it’s due to genetics, cultural upbringing, or societal pressures, many people grapple with saying no. Over time, relentless yeses can lead to homelessness, mental health struggles, regret, and distrust—all because we didn’t prioritize ourselves.
Why Can't We Say No?
From wanting to be seen as positive and accepted to religious beliefs in self-sacrifice, the reasons are plenty. Yet, saying yes all the time leads to irritation, disappointment, and even anger.
