Summary

Are you a people pleaser? Do you feel guilty while saying no? Do you feel good when you say, "yes," to everyone for everything - even by sacrificing your priorities?

If you somehow relate to the above, it means you are suffering from "being nice disease". If your life priorities have suffered badly, if you’ve taken a toll on your health by taking unnecessary stress due to every avoidable "yes", you need to be ready for becoming "not nice". 

You have to become more assertive in your life and work.

How would you do that?

Don’t worry. Here is your practical blueprint to stop people pleasing by developing assertive communication skills, learning to set boundaries, and living an authentic life by being yourself.

Life Changing

The case is layed out very clearly that people pleasing is not respected, not constructive and harmful to one's self esteem. In fact, it is positively dangerous.
This book lays out very clearly as to why you should start saying no, and do so very quickly.
Don't live to please. There's no better case against doing so than this book.
