we are unclear about what is essential. when this happens we become defenseless.<\/p>\n P135<\/p>\n innate fear of social awkwardness.<\/p>\n we don\u2019t what to let someone down. the only way out of this trap is to learn to say no firmly, resolutely, and yet gracefully.<\/p>\n P137<\/p>\n denying the request is not the same as denying the person.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m flattered that you thought of me but I\u2019m afraid I don\u2019t have the bandwidth\u201d or \u201cI would very much like to but I\u2019m overcommitted.\u201d<\/p>\n P138<\/p>\n everyone is selling something – an idea, a viewpoint, an opinion – in exchange for your time.<\/p>\n remember that a clear \u201cNO\u201d can be more graceful than a vague noncommittal \u201cYES\u201d<\/p>\n the \u201cNO\u201d repertoire<\/p>\n \n- the awkward pause<\/li>\n
