Learn How To Say NO!
Most of us dislike confrontation or disappointing people. We want to avoid the discomfort that follows declining the request of a friend, boss or associate, and it appears much easier to just comply with the request now and figure it out later.
What ends up happening is that we burden ourselves with piles of unreasonable tasks and deadlines only to feel overwhelmed and disappoint the very people we tried to keep happy by saying yes in the first place.
There are 24 hours in one day and saying yes to one thing means saying no to another. We cannot do it all and might as well accept it. Decide what you can reasonably say yes to and practice a friendly “no� followed by what it is you can do.
You will find that people will for the most part understand that you have other demands and responsibilities and will much prefer getting an accurate time frame or answer.
