For most of us , saying “no” is verydifficult. We don’t want to offend or disappoint people. As aresult, we have to spend too much of our time and energy on doingthings, which seriously interferes our work. Bu(医评网)t it requires agreat time and energy for us to pursue our goal. In fact, not onlydo we have to devote most of our time but also our heart and efore, even if a request is legitimate and important, sometimeswe just have to say “no” in order to prevent too great a toll onour time. And it is possible to decline a request in ways that donot seem rude or unkind. Here are some nice ways to say “no”.

You may pay a compliment as you say “no”. Take a universityprofessor, Delores, for example, when someone calls asking him toserve on their board, and he knows that he just can’t do it. Heoften say, “ I’m so glad you thought of me. I am a big fan of yourorgnization, but my schedule just won’t allow me to accept yourinvitation.”

You may also decline in a positive way. For example, “That’s a goodproduct, but it’s not something we can use at this time,” is agentle way to say “no”.

Buy yourself some time. Seldom do you have to give a

answer on the spot. Even if you feel strongly that your answer willbe no. Buy yourself sometime by saying “Let me think about it”,“Let me talk it over with my family” and so on.
