How to Say NO with Love and Kindness!

How do we say "no" with love and kindness behind it?

This is something I am working on and I am learning because this has been a big challenge for me, especially over the last several years.

Thank you for reading about day 196 of Happier People Podcast and I hope you enjoy it!

How to Say NO with Love and Kindness! #196

As you have helped things go so well with everything I do online, then people want stuff.

People have asked me just thousands of things.

"Jerry, watch my video. Jerry, will you review my cryptocurrency? Jerry, will you upvote my post? Jerry, will you resteem my post? Jerry, Jerry, Jerry."

One of the biggest struggles I've had with this is saying "no" with love and kindness behind it because there is a huge difference in saying, "No, your idea looks stupid. No, I'm not sharing your spammy posts. No, why do you waste my time with this?" versus taking that tiny bit of extra energy or sometimes a big amount of extra energy to say "no" nicely.

The answer is the same either way, but the effect on the receiver can be drastically different.

Really raised question @jerrybanfield , According to my opinion while saying 'No' in Love we have to use "Passive voice" instead of "Active voice"
What do you think @jerrybanfield ?

I would like know about your earnings from steemit.

all right, I agree with you and I know what you want to say.

Thanks so much for sharing this.
I meet many people who mistake compassion for kindness... at first.
Honest loving boundaries can help us all to thrive!
Thanks again 🙂

Just be honest.
Tell your talking-partner, honestly why not.

As easy as that. ;)

Umm excellent way to say no but what to do if you are dealing with your enemy ?

well, this is a price of popularity

Nice post Jerry

Very good idea. It's a lot of hard work. Do not tell anyone it again, with love, very hard work. But in some situations, many people say no.

Really it's an art of world.. it's too difficult to say no to a person who hv expect yes from u . It's a lie and to saying that we feeling very guilty at this time and after that also as like we did something very wrong. I think it's not good so not to do..

Keep upvote ..n comment

Really your Stuffs are Killing

Could you Please Tell me How to be Make Good Profile in Steemit?? @jerrybanfield

You should check his channel at youtube for this.

Saying No has always been hard for me, though we try our best to help people. But there are cases when we want others to understand that they are invading in our space.

Saying "no" has been a challenge I want to overcome.

Now that we know this, men will invite you to their houses.
