Sometimes the hardest part of a busy week isn’t the work. It’s the moment someone asks for something and your whole body wants to say no while your mouth prepares to say yes.
Here’s a small AI tweak that helps you hold the boundary without the guilt.
Paste your message into ChatGPT (or hit the little mic button and explain what you're trying to say) and add this prompt:
Rewrite this so it’s clear, kind, and rooted in self respect. Help me say no without over explaining.
It’s such a simple prompt, but for a lot of us, it’s rewriting years of being the automatic yes.
Brené Brown captures it perfectly: Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.
If you want more gentle, practical AI wins that make your life easier instead of more complicated, that’s exactly what we explore inside Adapt Lab. It’s a free Skool community for thoughtful, curious people who want to stay grounded while the world speeds up.
If you stop in, say hi. We’re building this one together.
