Have you ever felt that someone is forcing you to be
different, or do something you don’t want to do?
When we get put in that
situation, it’s best to say, “I don’t want to be involved”.
A lot of times, though, people feel trapped
if the person sounds bossy, or too firm, the other person may feel less
comfortable saying “No!” Often we are going to be put in this position, so
sometimes we need to practice saying “NO”, firmly. If we don’t get to say “no” firmly, that is
how we may be taken advantage of. I have experienced it, and it is not easy to
get out of, once you are put in the situation.
If you feel like people are going to be taking advantage of you, you
might want to talk to someone you trust, because they will be able to give you
advice on how to get out of the situation, and stay out of it. The trick is, that we get caught up in our
lives, but often don’t stand to see where we are. So, when we do, sometimes you
find you are much further away than you need to be. That’s what saying no is all about, to keep
you on track.
I know that it’s harder if you are at your job, than if you are
at home, but you still always have the right to say "no."
Until next time…
