RE: Tools to learn to say "no" and not die in the attempt
I was one that wanted to please everyone. This is quite pleasing in some respects, but can suck you dry and open yourself to people taking advantage of you.
It was something I needed to learn, to say no. It has helped a lot, and striking that balance between maintaining what is good for you and helping others is now a lot easier.
Some good practical advice however.
Cheers
wow you are a great example of courage and perseverance. Not everyone can say that he succeeded
Is that not just something that comes with experience and age? Thanks though for the kind words.
Oh no, I do not think so ... I know of people who are 60 years old and suffer from the terrible fortune of never being able to say no. As well as I know young people who have the determination to say NO without backtracking.
