I´ve already talked about the importance of saying ¨no¨. However, it is  worth mentioning once more. At tines, we feel obliged to do something we don´t want to. It could be either cause of manners or pressure. Besides, by giving underlying messages showing displeasure, people are mostly not going to understand you. You can even feel trapped in a mesh of loyalty and guilt when a friend asks you to do something difficult. Nonetheless, you have the right not to accept their requests occasionally. Maybe you´ve got used to circumlocutory and even facetious excuses to bail out of rough situations. Notwithstanding, it is better to confront our issues sometimes. It does entail hard work getting used to saying ¨no¨. Nothing can be achieved in one fell swoop. Moreover, we have to be careful of knee- jerk reactions. Still it works best to be polite when excusing ourselves or refusing rather than just being harsh. Do a concerted effort to learn how to reject with manners. For instance a simple ¨I can´t do it¨ said in an undertone, works well in most situations. Anyhow, I must lay down my duties now. Before I go though, I wanted to say this: If you work up enthusiasm for what you want to accomplish, nothing will stop you.
