LEARN TO SAY NO WHEN/WHERE NECESSARY

I have suffered in times past because of inability to say no to some things that I could’ve respectfully declined. This affected me in no small way as I lost total control of my time and life; and I don’t want you to go through the same.

Learn to say no to prodigal spending, you don’t need to spend on 'wants' when there are 'needs'. It should be in order of importance of priority!

Learn to say no when it’s eating into your time. We all have 24 hours in a day, and that is very fair to everyone as God would have it; young and old, male and female, men and women, rich and poor.

Everyone has equal number of hours in a day; the difference between people is the use of the time at their disposal. Don’t just wile away time, find something doing with your life that moves you closer to destiny and purpose each passing day!

Learning to say no when you should will save a great deal of your time! Believe me when I say this!!

This may rattle your ideology, but learn to say no to too many good things. This craze of wanting to do everything in this world at the same time will spread you out, without excellence in any of those things (except you have all the time to invest notwithstanding). Master of all trade, they say, jack of none!

Learn to say no if you cannot handle the situation at the moment, no at the present, does not mean never… that particular item can enter your waiting list.

Learning to say no saves you from burdens, distractions and over-commitments, and lets you give ample time to your purpose and God-given priorities.

This is not to excuse people who are not involved in too many things in life, and they are not serving or helping anyone with their time, yet, nothing to show for it… the day just goes by without making any tangible progress!

Be accountable for each passing time. Don’t waste your time, time wasted is life wasted; Gain control of your time and you will gain control of your life!!!
