“Half of the troubles of this life can be traced to saying yes too quickly and not saying no soon enough.”
Josh Billings, via Essentialism (Page 145)
“Giving away so much of your time to the requests of others will stop you from giving time to what is good and nourishing for you. Betraying yourself is not virtuous. Constantly saying yes to please others will lead to burnout. Say no frequently if you want to create a clear space in your life for what matters most to you.”
