I thought I was terrible at time management but I was actually terrible at saying no. I would just agree to do everything for everyone and then realize there was no way I could do it and then do none of that stuff and work on something I actually wanted to do.

I learned to say no to other people and that didn't work. Then I learned to say no to myself. That helped a lot.

Turned out I was saying yes to everything cause I liked the feeling of being important because I had a lot to do.
