In order to stand in your power, you have to cultivate healthy habits, patterns and practices. This requires conscientious self-management.<\/p>\n
So, I want to cover one way that many of us give away our power.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s by saying yes to too many things.<\/h2>\n
Let\u2019s examine why we do that.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s likely that we say yes to things in order to feel good, as well as look good. We feel good, because we have asserted ourselves. We look good because, seemingly, others (co-workers, family members, friends) admire or appreciate us for taking an initiative.<\/p>\n
The problem arises when we overestimate our ability to actually do all the things we are saying yes to.<\/p>\n
Now, we have a different situation altogether. Instead of feeling good about ourselves, we are disappointed and regretful. We end up forfeiting looking good as well, because we aren\u2019t following through on our agreements.<\/p>\n
Saying yes to too many things is a recipe for job burnout\u2026 or just burnout in general.<\/h2>\n
If you are someone who has discovered this tendency in yourself, you are not alone. Remember, your intentions are honorable. But in order to stand in your power, you have to actually do the thing you say you are going to do.<\/p>\n
I want to see you standing fully in your personal power!<\/p>\n
The simple solution? Say yes to less.<\/p>\n
So, instead of fervently jumping on twenty tasks, say no to fifteen. This way, you are able to do the five things you do take on effectively and efficiently.<\/p>\n
And the best part is: you get to really<\/i> look good and feel good!<\/p>\n
