    I walked away from a great position with a terrible commute. One week in, I called the manager and told him I was leaving, with nothing else lined up and life keeps bringing me abundance. We have to respect ourselves enough to walk away when it just doesn't work for us. ❤

      What do you want to protect? Time is nothing what you can protect. You can just choose how you want to use it. Saying no. Just tells the other person what you can't and don't want to do. It's just a choice.

    “Protect your agenda” resonated with me so deeply. As a creative working a 9-5 job, it can be hard to remember to hold space for my own agenda. The to do list is never ending and my own agenda always gets pushed to the bottom of the list. I can also admit that I don’t always utilize the pockets of time that I have. Thanks for the reminder!

      Dang. Sorry that happened to you. I think men will do well to realize that they're not the answer to a woman's problems and dreams. I get that men are inherently programmed to give like that, but no human can save another human from their problems and magically make all of their dreams come true. I'm saying this as a woman. Do not let a woman be dependent on you. Not only are you screwing her over as a human being, but you're also screwing yourself out of your own life. I understand marriage is about sacrifice, but you can't sacrifice yourself and who you are for someone else. I'm saying this as a woman who is somewhat traditional.

    Saying no is hard to do, but we must respect ourself.
    How many times we said yes, and regretted what were doing.

    This all I need. I am a college student who always gives too much, but after this semester I started realizing that it is not my job to make everyone feel included or make deep connections and give my time to people who do not deserve it. I decided that I am not answering emails, doing homework, or texting classmates after 8 pm or before 9 am. That is my time and mine only. Thank you for making this videos, I truly need an older woman that guides me. I am a first generation college student and it is easy to feel lost, yet your video its like a hug to my soul.

    11:22 really resonated with me. I wanna become a writer and hustle for that, I work from 7am to 3pm a shitty job in a kitchen and I wake up at 4 every morning to write until I leave for work, go to the gym after work and go back home to write. Starting with 1000 words per day helps! I wanna speak up on depression and mental health through modern characters, people who go through that without knowing what it is, etc. I think it should be spoken about way more in novels and I have faith I'll make it!
    Your words were precise and empowering ! Hard work for yourself is an absolute necessity. Working as an employee for a business/vision that's not yours is wasted energy (if your working to pay the bills I mean). When you said you HAVE to be a leader of your own ideas and concepts, have that vision that no one has, your unique vision needs a leader! You found the right words.
    I needed that, God bless yall.

      I have the same dream as you, to become a successful novelist & screenplay writer + to become a successful singer-songwriter.
      So far I only learned how to write songs by myself.
      I wanted to write my verse novel but I was too scared to write it, because the plot of the verse novel is related to my painful past and I thought that it would be painful to remember everything.
      But now I realize that that was just a silly fear, because when I write those sad and painful feelings pour out of me, out of my body, I can finally express them in some way and to not let them buried and hurt me, they turn into something positive.They turn into art.
      By the way what made you want to become a writer? What is your motivation?

    As an Asian woman in my late 30s, I resonated with that “raise” story and view compensation as a top factor in working for a company. Long story short, I was denied a change in my role/salary after positive reviews over 5 years and soon learned that other employees felt it was a toxic and racist company. I now view salary and promotion as a sign of how management views their employees. Subscribed and appreciate your insight!

      I think most people should work a few years before deciding what to actually do with their lives. College is actually not for the majority of people, and people tend to immature and mor0nic when they're that young. Working for a few years will instill a sense of maturity and reality in people; college is in fact not free and people will see this when they see taxes taken from their paycheck.
      Good for you for taking this path. There's seriously no need to rush going to school. I hope you do well at achieving your goals. It sounds like you will based on your mindset. 😊

    This really got me thinking.. I just became a mom a year ago, and I completely forgot about myself in the sense that I didn’t continue my studies anymore, going to the gym etc. I passed my driving exam after a month postpartum and I was so proud of myself because I had studied while pregnant. Sometimes I forget that although I have a child, my life doesn’t stop, and that if I don’t take care of myself how can I take care of my child, my home and be happy with my husband ? I realized if I continue this way I will end up so miserable and I want to be a good example to my son. I think it’s my time now and my time to really give myself the care I neeed. I feel I’m not fully healed after becoming a mother even after a year.. because I haven’t given myself enough time for ME. Thank you ❤️🙏

    You popped up in my recommendations, and i decided to give this video a listen tonight. Everything you said here are my exact thoughts and feelings, its as if the entire world gaslights you into believing their needs and visions are more valuable or important than yours! What's worse is that they have no regard to hold much or if ANY space for you, because they are too busy being absorbed into their own agenda.
    Being able to start carving out that time and space, even when my business is trying to grow and saying no to someone else utilizing my skills and abilities was a huge reassuring message for me to hear. This was the first time I heard anyone else, aside from my own inner dialogue coming to this exact conclusion.

I took time off work to attend my grandpas funeral and I get a notification on my phone from them of my performance review and to look over it whenever I have a chance! They could not wait for me to return back after the weekend
    They knew and even said their condolences the day before how rude!! Love this video thank you

      excuse me what?!? first of all, i'm so sorry to hear about your grandpa passing. ALSO this is soooo insane. i'm so glad you realize that this kind of behavior is a) so weird, b) inappropriate, c) RUDE, and d) just not kind or caring.

I never do this! 🥹 I'm done living this way. I want to swim 🏊‍♀️ 40 laps per day am pm, jog a few days a week and do yoga 2x a week. Thank you for this discussion. You are a blessing to us.

    It’s so easy to get trapped in the ego stroking of prestige - especially in a hussle city like NYC. I’m 4 1/2 years in and stepping back to ask what I actually want versus what I’m being conditioned to strive for. This video came at the perfect time. I love your call to action to step up as a leader. We are all capable - we just have to make the choice 💪🏾

    Thanks for these wonderful suggestions. I've been struggling with say "NO" to people. Sometimes I could do that but especially with people who are closed with I could not say "NO." For my new year resolution, I decided to say "NO" if things are not aligning with me. I'm trying to give my own growth instead of investing my time with other people. Moreover, I told the researcher coordinator who is also a PhD student and terrible at treating people, that I'm leaving her research work. I did not realize that she was manipulating me at first. I've learned a lot about the research work from her as an undergraduate student being a research assistant for her project. However, it's a time that I should leave this. I am really proud of myself that I walked away from this project.

    My husband and I just purchased a house across the country without telling anyone so that we will have a forced nope of space and distraction free zone. We don't know anyone, and we sort of just chose a "random" spot that sounded nice and boring. I'm so excited for the final embers of my current commitments to die out in the spring which after then when we can finally make the move. It's terrifying, but less about the negative "what ifs" and more about the opportunities and possibilities that lie ahead when I'm finally able to devote my time to my mission! Thanks for reminding me why I'm leaving town.

    Wow, this is exaclty how I went through a severe burnt out and depression. I'm still recovering from the damage but I'm super glad I was finaly able to block everything and spent a complete alone time for months. I stoped doing anything, meeting anybody, being on messenger or social media. After about 3 months of resting, I started to realized what I had been doing wrong for myself, which is what you are explaining over here. I wish I knew this sooner. I'm so much happier doing so much less now. 😊

    Thank you so much for this video! I finished my master's in graphic design this year, and have been in a bit of a limbo ever since... Managed to work on a really cool project that paid well, but I have no interested in working in a design studio or agency making someone else's dream a reality. However, the pressure to have something figured out is really crippling, so thank you for making me realize that it's okay to keep this field open and protecting this space, so that my yes can flourish!

  • @seaanemones
    @seaanemones 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    thank you needed to hear this. I am a fresh college grad working my first 9-5 in NYC and need so badly to reclaim my time. In college, it felt like all my time was my own because I really enjoyed my studies. And although I have a job that I am grateful for, there's no getting around the fact that the hours of 9-5 are not my own. after work, I've found myself smoking a joint and laying in bed too often because, before, in college, I could smoke, do homework, see friends, knit, go to class, relax a bit, write for my blog, make a collage, go for a walk, go to midday yoga-- all in one day. my days were truly mine. but now after work I am tired and all I want to do its shut off my mind and body. but at the same time i have so much creative passion that doesn't have an outlet. I needed to be reminded that MY time is now before and after work. and if i laze all that time away, it is gone with no going back. so If i am tired maybe i need to re configure my sleep to get the most out of my waking hours. this seems daunting but it is worth it to invest in myself i know. thankyou for putting this at the forefront of my mind.

    This is some of the realest shit I've heard Mandy.. As someone who was laid off from a company that literally told me "everything was gonna be fine" a week prior and decided to repost my job position 2 weeks prior to my last day without notifying me of departure, (I checked the company website and saw the position for a 3rd LESS than what I was paid.) Best thing to happened now I get to focus on a new career path. All the people I supported and thought I was cool with never reached out or nothing... Maybe 2 or 3 people but it be like that I got to make my dreams come true. This just makes it easier for me to get to where I need to be 💯

I was afraid to say no because I'm not sure what's on the other side as I try to work out the kinks in my company. I really didn't need them whatsoever to be honest, I just felt like I did. Thank you and I sent the email just 2min into the video. LOL. God bless the algorithm for sending this my way and here's to me learning at this age to stop letting people take advantage of me.

    Where have you been all my life!?! This is SO helpful! I feel SEEN because I’ve been practicing the lessons you discuss for over a year now sometimes feeling isolated and it’s nice to know others are out there that “get it”… Focusing on yourself - things that excite you, things that move you, things that bring you joy is an important and courageous pursuit so I hope your video encourages other like-minded people to do the same! It’s a notion that contradicts societal norms, but prioritizing yourself is hella necessary and the irony is you’ll ultimately have more to give to the world - Inner alignment generates higher yields! 🤓

This advice is spot on the sort of things that keep cropping up as I graduate and slowly join the working world. I do my best to keep my work in my working hours. And being part-time, that means that there is a lot of moments where I'm not working and I feel like I sort of should be, even when I have met my working hours for the week. You are do right. Don't feel bad. I'm doing my best. And this is my time to enjoy.

    Hi there. This is the first video that I've ever watched of yours and I really appreciate it. Today, I said a prayer for the first time in a long time, that I knew something had to change in my work/career life but I wasn't sure exactly what it was, and then later I stumble across this message. Everything you said resonates so much and your love, care, and sense of humor really show through in your delivery. This year, I am going to start respecting myself more - my time, my energy, and the vision that I have, however hazy. I hope I can come back to this some day and share about the life that I've built. Thank you
