Thought

Wish someone had told me this when I was a kid.

1. If I say “no” to someone and they get angry, this does not mean I should have said “yes.”
2. Saying “no” does not make me selfish.
3. Although I want to please the people I care about, I do not have to please them all the time.
4. It is okay to want or need something from someone else. 
5. My wants and needs are just as important as those of anyone else.
6. I have the right to assert myself, even if I may inconvenience others.
