How To Say No: Set Boundaries and Create Win-Win Situations (TPS384)

Asian Efficiency Team

In today’s episode, we’re going to share how to set boundaries and SAY NO.

This is the last episode of 2021. If you could set one intention for this upcoming year, a great one is to say NO to more things to prevent yourself from being overcommitted.

It’s hard for a lot of us – me (Brooks) included. Saying no is my productivity kryptonite.

You find yourself overwhelmed with everything you need to do, and you find it hard to find time the work on the things you WANT or NEED to.

You end up missing commitments or dropping the ball because you can’t bring yourself to say no to things that realistically, you aren’t going to be able to do (or do well).
