Stop Saying Yes by Noor Alaweyat


I’m going to say this for anyone who needs hearing it, you need to stop saying yes to everything everyone asks of you; as a @khaleejigirl, I know you aim to please others by performing your best at tasks at places like your home or work. However, you need to stop saying yes. Stop saying yes, every time someone asks or even tells you to do something that is out of your realm of professional work at your job or even as a daughter. For one, people take advantage of you if you start and continue to become a “yes girl”. Once this happens, people will be unable to register the word “no” coming out of your mouth. That’s right, they’ve just gotten so used to you always saying yes, it’s as if that’s your word.


It’s okay to be a no person. It’s more than okay to take a time out for yourself and to spend that time doing whatever your heart desires without feeling an ounce of guilt. Many times, we may forget, but this is YOUR life @Khaleejigirl. It’s time to remember that you deserve to continue living it in a sane way that makes you happy.
