KNOW What You Want
NO What You Don't Want
It is important to know what you want and "no" what you don't want.
Next time you are asked to commit to yet another thing ask yourself:
- Do I want to do it?
- Do I really have time to do it in addition to the other things I've committed to?
If the answer is "no" to both questions than say "no".
