The Yes You Didn't Mean

Saying yes too easily rarely looks like a problem from the outside. It often looks like being kind, easygoing and dependable. You might call it keeping the peace, being the easy one, or not making waves.

A worksheet for when yes comes too easily — where you learned it and why it made sense once, what every unmeant yes is costing you, the pause that buys you your own answer, saying no kindly and without a long explanation, what to do when somebody is disappointed, and getting to know what you actually want.

Fillable on your computer, or print it and write by hand.
