Day 28: 30 Days of NOvember

There’s a quiet cost to saying yes when you don’t mean it. You avoid the conflict in the moment… and then you end up carrying all the weight later. The extra task. The extra resentment. The extra pressure to be the “easy one.”

I’ve done that more times than I can count...agreed just to keep things smooth, even when the yes felt heavy the second it left my mouth. But here’s what I’m learning:

Avoiding conflict isn’t the same as creating peace. Most of the time, it’s just postponing your own burnout.

So this week I chose honesty over comfort. A clean no. No explanation. No overthinking.

And the world didn’t fall apart. It just got a lot quieter inside my head.
