The Art of Saying “NO”

I really have a bad habit of saying “YES” to requests/favors from friends and families, even though my schedule’s very tight already. Though maybe it’s was the way I was brought up or a habit I may have picked up somewhere. Anyway, I usually get more than I bargain for… multiple deadlines to meet on the same day. X_x

For the past few months I have been attending our Buddhist meets on some Sundays. It’s like one of those bible studies but in Buddhist’s settings. Few weeks back we were each given a topic to read and report on from a book given to us titled, “The Carefree Life“. It’s actually a pretty good book on how to live life with less or no worries, how to interact with other people! Basically, everything written on the book describes how one should properly act base on the events unfolding in front of him/her. The attitude of each person determines whether happiness or problem arise.

I’ll post the others as I read through them but for now I’ll be posting the summary of my report… “The Art of Saying ‘NO’“.
