Eight options to say no, with a bit of advice
https://www.masteryconsulting.net/post/yes-because-i-can-t-say-no
Here are eight options to say no, with a bit of advice: only the first four work to your advantage. Notice none of them offer a reason for declining. It’s your choice to explain your decision or not.
1. No.
2. No, thanks.
3. Thank you for asking, but I can’t.
4. Maybe next time.
5. Absolutely not!
6. I would never do that!
7. Are you out of your mind?
8. Not a snowballs’ chance in hell.
Use them carefully, simply, and intentionally and protect your time, money, and peace of mind confidently.
On second thought, I already had plans for that time and money. Ask me another time. And thanks for asking.
