Can you imagine how many times we say "Yes" to our friends, colleagues or people around us? Uncountable! Most of us are wasting our times with projects or activities that we really don't want to do simply but we say "Yes" because we are uncomfortable saying "No" and ignore our own plans and goals. The author says;
"If you are constantly saying yes to other people, then you are constantly saying no to yourself and your goals. Ask yourself if what is being requested of you is in line with your goals, will it benefit you in some way and bring you closer to your success, or will you simply be spending your time on someone else's good opportunity?
Success depends on getting good at saying no without feeling guilty. You cannot get ahead with your own goals if you are always saying yes to someone else's projects and agendas."
Then saying "NO" will be one of the key points to success!

Very well said, it's always hard to say no without feeling guilty, but that's the challenge of it.
In fact you don't need to feel guilty to say "NO". Just say "NO" when there is necessary and when you have other higher value things to do in life.
To your success!
