I understand what you mean EvidenceVsFaith. I often feel I have the same issue.

I think it just comes with practice. Saying no is hard if you aren't used to doing it.
Start small, say no when someone asks you for something small. Be polite, but firm. You may feel guilty for saying no, just let it pass.

Good luck. Smile
