Most people say "yes" much more readily than "no".
   A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help,and you agree.But,what you really wanted were a couple of quiet days relaxing at home.Or a roommate spends the entire weekends playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for "reference".But,you've just finished it after taking a whole day to work hard.Many people say "yes" to these kinds of requests.They usually don't consider their own interests and feelings,and are often angry with themselves afterwards.
   Saying "no" requires courage and considerable practice,in fact,according to psychologists. "Everyone wants to be liked," says Gabriele Steinki,a German psychologist. "Saying 'no' risks losing the affection of the person asking the favor or even a job."
   In fact,refusing a request can even help to strengthen a relationship because it expresses a true feeling.But,for people used to agreeing to every request,changing can be a long and uncomfortable learning process.
   Most people believe that "If I say 'no',I'll lose the affection of the person.But the affection is important to me." This way of thinking can be replaced by this: "If he only likes me because I always do what suits him,then the price of his affection is too high in the long term."
   Steinki says the key is talking to the other person to find a mutual solution. "One needs to present the situation from one's own point of view,and to suggest how the situation can be dealt with to the advantage of both parties.The other person must have the feeling that his interests are being considered." When the refusal is not accepted,Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly again until the person gets the message.

  • 1.Have you ever been sad because of failure?Please remember,for often,achieving what you set out to do is not the most important thing.
       A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house.As he was working,a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. "What are you doing?" asked one of the visitors. "I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth!" the boy answered excitedly.The older boys began to laugh,telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible.After a while,the boy picked up a jar(罐子).He showed it to the visitors.It was full of all kinds of stones and insects.Then he said calmly and confidently, "Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth,but look at what I've found during this period!"
       The boy's goal was far too difficult,but it did cause him to go on.And that is what a goal is for—to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen,in other words,to cause us to keep working!
       Not every goal will be fully achieved.Not every job will end up with a success.Not every dream will come true.But when you fall short of your aim,maybe you can say, "Yes,but look at what I've found along the way!So many splendid things have come into my life because I tried to do something!" It is in the digging that life is lived.It is joy on the journey that really makes sense.

    C.Goals shouldn't be set too high.
