One of the fundamental tasks to high performance is figuring out what to say yes to. But we also have to decide when to say no. If we only say yes, we're just adding more to our plate - and if it's anything like mine, it's already close to capacity.
But it's hard to say no. How do you say no to people you work with, live with and care about?
My personal answer is not to focus on saying no but rather on saying yes more slowly. Sometimes we're being asked merely because we are the first person they thought of or because the request hasn't been thought through.
