Life coach Lily Silverton on the power of saying no
Dear Lily. I’m so worried about offending people that I’ve become a bit of a people pleaser. But I’m on the verge of burning out. How do I say no?
Dear reader,
There’s a phenomenon in known as “Negativity Bias”, which in essence shows us that the responds more fiercely to a negative stimulus than a positive one. It’s only trying to keep us safe – from a survival standpoint, feeling and remembering painful encounters helps us better avoid them in the future.
