Even when we want to say "No" to a weekend plan, a meeting or a job, we find ourselves saying "YES" just for fear of overwhelming another person. Many times, we do not know how important it is to learn to say no and how much time we spare ourselves doing this.

The truth is that this behavior must change as soon as possible. What is left untold at the right time can change the fate of history.

However, we find it difficult to say no and we have our reasons. We do not want to disappoint, to break a relationship. On the other hand, studies have proved that people generally glamor and respect those who know "No!" Without fear. So people understand that you value your time and yourself.

For all those who find it difficult to say simply 'no', there are some ways to escape the embarrassing situation without sacrificing themselves:

1. Say a 'No' soft, or 'No, but ...' instead of offering something else.

2. Let me see a little bit of the calendar and then answer it.

3. Say No with humor, they will understand for themselves.

4. "I can not, but X can!"

Say "Yes" to look good in the eyes of others will make you feel good for the moment, but the consequences come later.
