As an Enterprenuer one of the most difficult things to say is No.
Everyone is different, so we have different reasons for not wanting to say no. Some of the common reasons are:
Not wanting to appear negative
Not wanting to upset or offend the other person
Worrying about possible social or professional repercussions
A desire to please everyone.
But guess what? There are ways to say no, without saying no.
Once we understand our own reasons behind not wanting to say no, we can address them rationally.
