“NO” sounds so final. Negative. Unfriendly…
Here’s your Monday Motivator alternative:
Two words instead of one… Try “not now.”
“Not now” keeps the conversation positive. It validates the request. It most likely reflects your true feelings. All it means is… “I’d like to help you but I can’t at this moment.”
Your Monday challenge is to employ these TWO words rather than the one no one wants to hear.
