This guest story is all about learning how to say no, because, as you may guess, we all too often say yes. I’ll clarify that saying yes isn’t a bad thing, until it becomes detrimental.
We want to show everyone that we can work hard and be open to opportunities. As a result, we often feel the need to say yes to most opportunities that come our way.
It’s important to remember that “No” is a complete sentence. If that sounds harsh, then try a “no, thanks”. You don’t need to explain your decision, and you don’t need to make excuses.
