The power of saying 'no'

Power of saying no.

YOU know the feeling you get when your friends try to drag you out? You want to see them but you know that would mean putting your work on “pause” mode. You convince yourself that a couple of hours won’t hurt. You’ll just finish it later. But two hours become almost four, and when you return home, the last thing you want to do is work because it’s already so late.

You assure yourself that you will wake up early in the morning to finish it off. The next day, your alarm is on snooze and you have trouble waking up so you never get round to finishing that task.
