A little reading to begin with
A SAMPLE FROM CHAPTER ONEChoose one request you often accept unwillingly. Identify what matters about helping and what the current version costs you. You can care about a relative while declining a particular visit, task or arrangement.
Check whether the request is optional or part of an existing responsibility. An obligation may require discussion and a revised plan rather than a simple refusal. For an optional request, ask what you can offer honestly within your capacity. You are not deciding whether the person deserves care. You are deciding what contribution you can actually make without quietly borrowing from other needs every time.
Consider what would happen if you agreed again. The likely effect on sleep, another commitment or ordinary rest is part of the decision, even when the requester cannot see it. You do not need to prove exhaustion before deciding that an optional contribution exceeds your available capacity.
