There was a point in my life when I was a ‘Yes Woman’. I was taught to say yes to everything because YOLO. I’d say yes to every plan under the sun. I was one of those people who would do things mindlessly because I didn’t have the strength or even the conviction to say no. It was only a few months ago that I realised that in order to take care of myself, lead an ambitious life and get closer to my goals in life, I must say no to certain things. It is as important but often harder.

If you’re a twenty-something struggling to find meaning in life, learn to say no to these things to live a more fulfilling life. No, is surprisingly a beautiful word. 

Saying no, can be quite liberating.
