Say “Yes” Without Fear and “No” Without Guilt
Actionable advice.
I did it. Now I live without fear and embarrassment. I am no longer afraid to tell people that in their personal space they can do whatever they like. But being in my world, he has to respect me.
To those who turn a clear day into a storm, I say "no" directly. And I leave the word "yes" for my life, my desires, and, of course, for my dignity.
Self-assertion without attacking others is a rather rare occurrence today. People often confuse pride selfishness and self-assertion with transferring their values to someone else. However, a fearless and innocent "yes" is not much more than a simple exercise necessary to increase mental health and survival.
I dress as I see fit, come and go whenever I want. I listen, I respect and I defend my opinion. For some time now, I have learned to live without fear, to say "no" without guilt, and to say "yes" when I like what I hear.
My heart is open to all who want to enter it, but there is another door in it - to those who must come out.
The key to wise and full respect for life is somewhere in the middle - where you can make yourself known without violating the rights of others and not giving in to the demands of others to please them and to fit into the environment.
Fearless "No"
In childhood, most of us were not told about self-esteem. Depending on our education, as well as our childhood and adolescence memories, we create for ourselves a kind of self-esteem that allows us to survive. But over time, each of us passes complex life tests for the persistence of such self-esteem.
You cannot prepare for these moments, they experience our fears, weaknesses, our courage and make us adapt to this incredibly complex world.
The ability to say "no" without fear, but with respect for each of your aspirations and needs is very important.
For example, many of us have heard of the "law of loss of personality" and of the outward complaint, which forces a person to constantly seek out external approval to manifest as a personality. In this case, our dignity is trapped in a prison of fear and indecision.
However, in our world, it is common to be silent and suppress your needs and desires for fear of being punished or, worse, rejected by the people around you.
If you do nothing about it, you will gradually cease to capitalize, giving up your right to vote, to breathe, and you simply want to be the one who answers "yes" to the proposal to live.
I refuse without guilt
Self-acceptance helps to heal and liberate your personality, helping you to believe in yourself and to realize your ability to respect not only yourself but also other people.
Life without fear of the word "yes" and guilt for refusal is a life in harmony, it is an opportunity to survive in every dimension of existence, as well as an expression of real and absolute respect for dignity and others.
How to be firm and decisive without feeling guilty
Being firm and decisive without aggression is a sophisticated art that requires high precision. Every word should have a specific meaning and talk about needs, rights, and limits that are not negotiable.
Refusal to wait for consent is not a betrayal. This statement is about your position, and other people should act accordingly, trying to get to know you better.
Refusing in time can save a life, and especially yours. He will protect you from falling into situations that make you unhappy, throw handcuffs at yourself.
Say "no" at the right time, without any fear or shame. People who love you will respectfully accept your refusal. They won't even be surprised by him, because I know you well. And those who continue to insist or feel betrayed have only two options: accept this refusal or let them go through the open door of your heart.
The whole idea is to stay confident and follow your survival instinct when you can stop hiding and be ashamed of yourself.
Happiness is always beyond fear and that is why it is necessary to cross it with courage, with a proud head raised, with eyes wide open, and with a heart full of joy.
