Why No is Not a Negative Word

Do you find yourself saying “no” to friends, bosses, family members, or co-workers and then feeling conflicted or just plain bad about what you said or how you said it? Well, join the club. The word “no” is a very positive word that forces us to define what we want or need usually in conflict with what another person wants or needs. It is this conflict or the fear of conflict that makes it so discomforting when we say no. You have the power to say what you feel and really mean it.
