Say No by Mahatma Gandhi

I got this nice explanation of Mahatma Gandhi from my friends of ligsuniversity and it has helped me so much i believe you will like it as well:


“A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes 'merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.
Mahatma Gandhi

The word NO is one of the most powerful and at the same times the most destructive and the most feared words difficult to say. Each of us should say the word NO almost every day to friends, colleagues, bosses, family members, etc. However, very often we try not to say it and tell ourselves that it is in our interest even though we know that it is not. If you know how to say NO and how to use it properly, it may profound and positive change our live.
When we decide whether we have to say NO, it is reasonable to ask ourselves three questions:

    Would I like to say NO?
  Do I have the power and strength to say NO?
    Do I have the right to say NO?

Saying NO is not always easy; especially if we have to say it to people that we rely on. If we are attacked by doubts, we should remember about three facts that could help us: our interests, power to say NO and the right to say it. When we match our interests, power and right, nothing can stop us. Let us remember that our duty is not to say YES to others. People should respect you even if you say them NO.



We wish you the best of luck!
