Wow, this is a really inspiring post. Unfortunately, I am one of those persons who can never ever say no to anything - I'm always scared to make other people feel uncomfortable. Giving up things you don't want in order to say yes to things you really do want makes perfect sense - but I had never seen it from this point of you. Thanks for the inspiration @axios - I will now try to say "no" more often :-)

I hear you @viktoria.elli. It's pretty common to feel that way, especially if you're more on the introverted side or a more developed empath. But I think it's really important to practice saying no - especially when it's scary. The more you do it the more you realize that its actually not that scary AND the other person is only as uncomfortable as you choose to be. So if you can say "no" and be totally chill about it, you usually get a chill response, which suddenly makes the experience seem more normal.
Thanks for reading and sharing Viktoria - glad to hear you'll try saying no more :)
