Do you ever find yourself blurting out “yes” to a request when you really want to say “no?”

Many of us have been conditioned to people-please, going beyond giving of ourselves to the point of giving up ourselves. This leads to exhaustion, anger, and some really ugly resentment. It doesn’t have to be this way!

In this session, attendees will learn how to apply The Clash Principle to their decision-making process.

You will:

• Identify and honor your needs (maybe for the first time ever!)
• Learn a 3-step process to determine if “yes” is the right response for you
• Understand why saying “no” now, allows you to say “yes” later

You’re faced with decisions every single day. It’s time to do what’s right for you and learn “Should I yay, or should I no?”

Creating a strong, cohesive team that works together to reach a common goal is admirable… if all of the team members are pulling their own weight. In many situations, individuals with boundary issues are taken advantage of, picking up the slack for coworkers who routinely miss deadlines. This leads to resentment, feelings of being overwhelmed, and eventually, employees who jump the fence in search of greener pastures (only to find that their problem follows them to the next field!).

AudienceTakeaways

• Identify the “Boundary Busters” in your organization. (The people who regularly pawn off work and fill your time with their own agenda)
• Understand where your people-pleasing behavior comes from and how to eliminate it
• Communicate with management and coworkers to determine priorities and handle your tasks before taking on others’.

Your work is your responsibility. Don’t allow your day to be hijacked by inappropriate demands on your time. Better boundaries lead to stronger teams.

You’ve dedicated your life to helping others. Thank you!

Whether you rescue animals, teach children, care for the sick, or serve any other population or cause, you probably give more than you can. If you give too much of yourself, you experience anxiety, depression, and eventual burnout. When you’re burned out, you let down the very population you pledged to protect.

Audience Takeaways

• Understand the inner and outer effects of dysfunctional boundaries.
• Learn that a glass of wine every night or a spa day once every 6 months doesn’t qualify as “self-care”
• How your smartphone can save your life

Never again say, “But it’s for the…” Make yourself a priority so you can continue serving the people and animals you love.
