Saying NO is an art

Saying that you don’t like is often difficult. Especially when we need to say to our friends. One of thing that lurks behind this faking is the fear of misinterpretation. We say what we meant to say, but they take what they take. Most oftentimes we mean no offense, but the scenario makes it worse. We say most politely that “ I’m grateful for your offer, but I don’t do it “ through a single NO. But sometimes they take it as regarding. They hear something like “ I don’t want your shit “. We can read it from their face all the frustration and indignation ,even when displaying fake smiles. If that’s the case, then we conclude that NO is getting us and our relationship ripped. What we don’t realize is that the after effect of it, such as we blaming them for the entire thing. Here things get even worse and may lead to the demise of the relationship. Once you become comfortable with saying “no”, then it becomes easy to sort out the unimportant from important. Your priorities become explicit. It is like an art, the art of saying no, to express your vision through a single tiny powerful word.

Time framing for success

The problem with people who were used with instant gratification is that they would often assign wrong time frame with result analyses. What gets them to get their feet off the pride work is correlated with the measurement. The first few time blocks are always found to go against expectations. Without having the right time frame to measure, they often fall into the trap. The initials days or months always are meat to experiment and learn.

This happens to all investments. How noises leads to bad decision could be narrated by everyday example. We must have seen that when the price of a certain assets go down, we have this urge to withdraw money. But what if it goes up ?. So we wait for couple of days further to see the assets going down.
