Have you ever had anyone speak to you in a tone that made you feel uncomfortable? And yet, you said nothing. Have you ever done something for someone or with someone that you really didn't want to do? And yet, you did it anyway, only to become resentful later.

Every time you say nothing, every time you let it slide, every time you do something for someone else that you don't want to do, you tell yourself that the other person means more than you. In essence, you give yourself (and others) the message that you don't matter.

How it begins

One of the first words we learn to say as infants is "no". We learn this word partly because we hear it so frequently and it's an easy word to pronounce. It becomes a popular word as we move into the toddler years. Then we learn that it's not nice to say "no", that we need to do as we are told. As children, this is how we learn right from wrong; it's how we learn acceptable behavior.

As we grow, we allow people to convince us to do things that are not congruent with the way we want to be. Somewhere along the way to adulthood, our ability to say "no" gets lost. It becomes easier to tell ourselves "no" than to say "no" to others, so we ignore our own feelings and go with the flow.

What matters is that we please others. So we take on projects and additional responsibilities that we'd rather not do and after awhile we become proudly known for ˜getting it done'. Over time, we become resentful and unhappy. We continue to repeat the same messages we were taught as children and never question whether they serve us as adults.

Paying the price

Saying "yes" when you'd rather not means you're really saying "no" to yourself. This undermines your self-esteem. You unwittingly tell yourself that the other person's needs come before your own and you devalue yourself. And, until you are ready to take responsibility for yourself, it will continue.

As health care professionals, we are accustomed to placing the needs of others before ourselves. That's part of who we are. We enjoy helping others, that's why many of us choose health care careers; we value working in the service of others. We are the caring professionals. And yet, can't we be just as caring when we care for ourselves first?

When I met Susan, it was just before Christmas. Susan was not in health care; she had her own insurance business. She told me that 45 people were coming over for Christmas dinner.

She was excited to say that her mother was coming but her demeanor changed when she said her siblings were coming with their spouses, children and grandchildren. She was clearly not looking forward to this dinner; it was a lot of work and she was expected to cook every year -" family members did not take turns, although some of her sisters brought food. I asked her to tell me what the perfect Christmas dinner would be like.
