When saying yes to everything leaves nothing for you

Someone needs a favor, I say yes. Extra project lands on me, yes. Cover the shift, yes. By Friday I'm scraped down to nothing and quietly furious at all of them, even though I'm the one who keeps saying yes to everything.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You say yes to everyone until you're empty, then resent them for it.

If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
