Publisher's Synopsis
It's so much easier to say "yes" than it is to say "no" but oftentimes we overwhelm ourselves by saying "yes" when we really want to say "no."
How to control your lives easier.
This is in large part due to the fact that we are hard-wired to please people. It can be uncomfortable to tell someone "no" because we don't like how it feels to disappoint someone. Some of us are also afraid of conflict and - in an effort to avoid it - will be more agreeable than we actually want to be.
In today's fast-paced, high-tech world, burnout has become an epidemic. That's why it's vital for your well-being to know when to say yes and how to say no.
