3. The consequences of saying ‘no’
You need to know the consequences. In some instances it does not pay off to say ‘no’. However, there are cases when you can say ‘no’ without any risk. You will simply save time and make yourself feel better. No doubt others will feel disappointed, but you have the right to make your own desires and wishes your priority. You cannot make others happy all the time.

4. Think well before you make your final decision
When someone sends you a request, we suggest you should first sit on it and only then make your final decision. Sometimes requests may seem to be reasonable and simple at first sight. However, after some time you realize that they do not make too much sense and that saying ‘yes’ is useless. It’s ok if you eventually decide to say ‘no’. There is no need to give an instant answer.
