Pointer:  Clear Ways to Communicate No

Do you sometimes have trouble saying no?

 

Try these statements.

 

I understand, and no.

I hear what you are saying, and no.

I appreciate what I'm hearing, and no.

Thank you for sharing that with me, but no.

I hear you, I care about you, and no.

I understand and what do you suggest?

Thank you.
