Let’s begin this challenge 😎
Peace everyone, today we will start the people pleasing challenge! If you can join, please drop a comment below. If not, stay tuned for the next challenge. 😎
Instructions for the people-pleasing challenge:
Here is the definition of people pleasing:
People pleasing is when someone puts others’ needs, wants, or approval above their own, often at the cost of their own well-being.
For the next 14 days:
Step 1.
For the next 14 days, everyone starts practicing saying “NO” to every opportunity, request, or demand that isn't in alignment with your personal interests.
Step 2.
Next, bring awareness to the habit of over-explaining your reason for not wanting to participate in the activity. Why is this important? Because if you try to explain your reasons for saying no, the other person, place, or thing can utilize those reasons and try to manipulate and change your mind. Remember, saying “No” is a complete sentence.
Step 3.
Once you have expressed “NO” to whatever is requesting your attention. Bring your awareness to your mental narratives. What are they expressing to you?
For example, I said “NO” to a coworker who wanted me to do something I didn't feel comfortable with. I walked off, and that voice in my head started telling me, “She is going to tell other coworkers how you really are,” etc.This started to make me feel anxious and a little guilty.
Step 4:
Once the story or narrative is externalized, try to write down, memorize, or audio record in your phone what your narrative is stating to you. You will continue this practice for 14 days.(Sept 2- 16)
Step 5:
In the group, post “NO” for the next 14 days; if you told someone “NO” for that day. If you haven't told nobody “NO,” you can still post in the group for group support and encouragment. This will also keep you accountable for this challenge.
*** This challenge will end on September 16 and we will continue with the second half of this challenge. I will provide further instructions after this challenge is complete. ***
