KNOWING WHEN TO SAY NO!

Ever found yourself in a situation whereby you didn't just know how to say no? We've all been there, you are not alone. Sometimes, hearing a negative answer seems to be easier to handle than actually giving it. A lot of people are scared to say no, because they fear that people may feel let down by their response and they just haven't learnt how to handle disappointments.

But the truth is, saying no to a request or  offer is sometimes the best thing to do. It could save you from a lot of stress, heartbreak, anxiety and all sorts of awkward situations. It doesn't make you the "bad guy". Instead, it helps you to be honest to yourself and on a long run, it makes you a reliable person. Because if you say no when you know you really can't meet up with a demand or offer, you give the person making a request the opportunity to get another chance or look elsewhere for that demand to be met.

You can't live your life trying to please every single person, it just doesn't work. Some people will forget all the times you said yes to their requests, even the sacrifices you made for them, just the one time you say no to them. Take it all in good faith, just know that you can't really please everybody.
