| Abstract
|
:
|
Do you swear to yourself that you are going to be firm and not give in to unreasonable demands, only to "chicken out" when confronted with the need to make an important decision? If you're afriad that saying "no" will cause a backlash with friends, family, or colleagues, you'll be pleasantly surprised to learn that "no" can be a productive answer, and can put you in control of any situation - without turning you into a meanie!
