What worries me or keeps me awake is always not fulfilling what I promise. My grandfather told me: "never promise what you cannot fulfill." So when I promise something until I fulfill it I do not stop, but I recognize that until that happens, I feel as if I am being crushed.
That has led me to learn to say NO. For me it is very difficult because I like to help. But I learned that when you try to help in something for which you are not prepared or do not have the means or resources, it is like trying to save someone who is drowning, and I jump into the water and realize that I do not know how to swim either, it would have been better to throw a life preserver or a rope to get him out of the water.
The art of saying NO is definitely an attitude to master in life. We tend to think we can do a lot of stuff, fogetting that we can do anything, but not everything.
Thanks
