Something else I like that I wanted to post.

By Virginia Satir 1. I do not have to feel guilty just because someone else does not like what I do, say, think or feel.
2. It is OK for me to feel angry and to express it in responsible ways.
3. I do not have to assume full responsibility for making decisions, particularly where others share responsibility for making the decisions.
4. I have the right to say “I don’t understand” without feeling stupid or guilty.
5. I have the right to say “I don’t know”.
6. I have the right to say NO without feeling guilty.
7. I do not have to apologize or give reasons when I say NO.
8. I have the right to ask others to do things for me.
9. I have the right to refuse requests which others make of me.
10. I have the right to tell others when I think they are manipulating, conning or treating me unfairly.
11. I have the right to refuse additional responsibilities without feeling guilty.
12. I have the right to tell others when their behavior annoys me.
13. I do not have to compromise my personal integrity.
14. I have the right to make mistakes and to be responsible for them. I have the right to be wrong.
15. I do not have to be liked, admired or respected by everyone for everything I do.
