  or oneself.

18

• False sense of obligation
• Fear of retaliation
• Need for recognition

19
Not Being Able To Say No Can Lead To

• Health problems
• Decrease in quality performance
• Being the Fall Guy for everyone else

20
Strategies For Saying NO

• Say no first before expectations are developed,
  then explain.
• Learn appropriate excuses.
• The best excuse is commitment to your own
  priorities.
• Give yourself time. Count to ten before saying
  yes.
• Think of other ways to help without saying yes.
  
• Say yes with limits.
• Be consistent when you no and mean it!
• Strive for respect and effectiveness rather than
  popularity.
• Most yes-sayers have not learned to drop old
  roles. They know addition but not subtraction.
• You cannot achieve your priorities unless you
  learn to decline requests that do not contribute
  to the achievement of your goals.

21
List Making

• Head a piece of paper To Do
• List items on which you want to work. Add more as
  you think of them throughout the day.
• Set priorities Write an A to the left of those
  items on the list that have a high value a B
  for those with medium value and a C for those
  with low value.
• Most people wrongly do C items first because
  they are easy and usually have a high chance of
  success.
• The ABC prioritizing method should help you to
  avoid this. Dont count on getting all the Cs
  out of the way so that then you will be free to
  do the As. Dont kid yourself by completing the
  simple, reinforcing Cs. You are losing your time
  for the more important As.
