How to say "NO"

{Thread} 🧵
Before we talk about how,
let's talk about WHY 🙌

If you are saying "YES" to everything, you are distracting yourself from being committed to one thing.
They say, "Saying yes to everything, open new doors"

And I agree.

But don't you think we already too many doors open, we just need to say no other doors and go inside one.

Few examples from the book: Tribe of Mentors - Tim Ferriss
How to say "NO":

- Be honest.
- Don't eff around (Just say it)
- Give an alternative solution.
- Be strong (If the person can't accept your no, they are probably not the right person to work or be with)
Few (how to say "NO" politely over text) liners:

- I'm honoured but I can't.

- I wish there were two of me.

- Thanks for thinking of me, but I have too much on my plate right now.

- Unfortunately, now is not a good time.
Warren Buffett once said,

"The difference between successful people and very successful people is that

very successful people say NO to almost everything."
